RE: Should You Upvote Memes on Steemit?
Your opinion of what steemit should be is just that your opinion. if people choose to make or upvote memes that is not a proble for anyone but people that don't like memes. maby go after single picts with no text that make 60bucks. or maybe hit up the feminists that get 12 upvotes with a pay out of 200 bucks because some whale wants to push some lies that others have debunked with facts and links in the comments.
I personally will upvote a meme I like over some stupid bullshit post tht "You" say has value. it is all subjective and what you think is best for steemit does not matter.
I support any post that is original no matter if you like it or not.
by trying to get people to conform to what "you" think steemit should become is pushing people away.
Notice how slow the posting has gotten the last 2 weeks?
-smh-
Did you read to the end before you fired off your half-cocked rant? Nowhere in that entire post did I once tell anyone else what to do, now did I? I asked a question to start a dialogue.
I would contend that there is nothing original about the one-liners that are plastered across an image and re-posted ad nauseum. That was really the crux of the point which I was trying to make, in fact.
My post has certainly succeeded in starting a conversation, hasn't it? Is there not value in that? Otherwise we are all just shouting into an echo chamber without ever really listening to each other or considering any other point of view. The beauty of constructive discussion is that you may collectively reach new understanding regarding a subject. This is how you grow as a human being.
