RE: THE USAGE OF (voting) BUTTONS: RELOAD?

in #steemit5 years ago

woaw ... as always :D

It's nearly 4am so i'm afraid i'll have to put the reply in double and read it again tomorrow. I think you would me a great anarchist my dear ... Ursula Le Guin herself would be proud. In the true sense of the word that is ...
Not the revolt against government but the lack of need to be governed ... I see you ran into ojou-sama as well , that last remark on twitter i read that said "just buy, dont ask questions" as well as the frequent use of normies in the context provided has more than once made me wonder if her highness grew up with seven maids and a butler and if she is really the right person to advocate this thing to the masses ... but #offtopic , sorry.
And that said, i think you might be overestimating the willingness of most people to have responsibility. It's a lot easier to do as you're told, that way it's never your fault.
You certainly are an asset to humanity (or maybe just a mutant like some others whose names we shan't mention hahah)
A small popup saying "your vote will be visible forever on the blockchain for everyone on the world to see" might not be that bad an idea but i'm afraid i'm gonna have to owe you the numbers until tomorrow. I'm certainly more than willing to try and give it a piece of mind but a bit o' sleep and two cups of coffee in my head seem to be a better environment than four in the morning. It's just i just opened @yapcat here to do the talking and prevent spillage from my always latent supreme ability at voicing popular opinion as well as making friends in high places from my mouth to my little "projects" id like to build here (at my own chaotic pace) and ofcourse your post caught me so i couldn't resist giving a small reply already (im at least half as good at yes-or-no answers as you are i think :D)

So ... if i dont give you the numbers tomorrow you can officially slap me and call me a ... whatever it is in german :p i'll keep the tab open b/c i dont trust my head made of cotton and gravel and my other supreme ability to be distracted by a ball of yarn ...

great stuff as alays @erh.germany

(platonic sense ofcourse ...)

Sort:  

:) You always surprise me anew. I appreciate this quality with you. I stumbled a little when you described me as anarchistic and thought "I? LOL. I get many interesting names from people, mainly I am considered "naive". It's funny to get something like that said when you're almost fifty. But you hit the nail on the head with your statement that I see no need to be governed and therefore no need to govern others. For me there are no masses that I could overestimate, because every human being has the potential to be sovereign. I am told that the self-centredness lies in the nature of man, which I do not see in the very last consequence, or rather prefer another mental construction. I see the nature of man in reactions like two opposing football teams ending a game and half of the spectators being very depressed and sad while the other half seems happy and drunk on victory. But among the winners there are always people who look at the victory with a sad eye and wish there were no losers. Every loser I am responsible for will make my life sour. Pitying the loser is a really nasty experience.

Contrary to all convictions, human everyday life is filled with events that never only want "yes" or "no" answers. People make reasonable choices and - in given circumstances - always consider or at least try to consider a number of options. But those who let themselves be rushed, look at what others say, whether they like or dislike, will always have the impression that they themselves have no choice and are incapable or incompetent. Let's say that in the quiet attic or the unconscious feelings and reactions we are all not wrong at all. But as soon as we publicly say or do something, we become awkward, opportunistic or aggressive because we think we have to be that way. The mask of others makes us believe that it is real and so we put one on. How nice it is that there is carnival, isn't it?

So no, I don't overestimate the masses, I am convinced of the potential of the individual in this mass, which can always be awakened and encouraged by unusual experiences. Of course, if I am "the only one" who finds such, I have a hard time. But I am not unhappy, only sometimes terribly sad, that my fellow men let themselves be guided by their disappointments and their neediness. But since I am not a saint, I know that I too am led astray by these experiences, which are perceived as negative, and I want to look into it and let a garden grow out of my heart.

The thing is: I would like to be regarded as a human being in this way, that my reason, my resources can be tickled out. When I meet people who can do that, I am delighted. So I would also like to make this available. I realize that my impatience could ruin everything. That what I stand for could not find an echo in my private environment, in my work, or on this channel. But it will find an echo (and already has), I have not the slightest doubt. Only: to really want to experience the success of a thing at any price is already the branching off into the devil's chamber. The already "dead" "knew" that :)

Thanks for the inspiration. I looked up Ursula Le Guin and "ojou-sama" - never heard of and found myself in resonance.

Yes, my unknown friend, do the numbers, please. And I may never call you a bad German name :-DDDD

You made my day. You are one of the most interesting people here, I met. Let's see what that does to your ego, as you spoiled mine. HaHa!!!

Note:

I added as a fifth proposal for the second part (distribution of payouts)

No 5. Pushing the "publish" button automatically creates a distribution alike for everyone posting content. It has a ratio of 50/50.

Please, be so kind and give me your vote for that, too. It was mentioned by two users which is a sign for me to include this into the list. Thank you!

12 days ago omg ... euhm without checking i think i do remember answering that one @erh.germany , Erika, something along the lines of "it should be a personal choice" for big and little fish alike. That way everyone can show themselves lol, the whale who'd get $100 going 10% by getting $500 going 50 every time by choice will show a certain trait of character so i think that would be a zero (opposed, if i remember the scale correctly) didnt work on the consensus parser since either. It happens a lot once i grasp the idea lol, not to say that i wont ever finish it into a usable script but with me things are e.ta. nAn , i hope this still helps, if not for posting then for personal use of stats ... lagging behind on everything again. My well-chosen name and often going beyond just lapsus-linguae, which already had me in twitter jail once for not being too nice towards Donald Trump on a matter of golf leaves me without RC a lot too, in case you still get this ... thats a definite no, total resist. If you're into data gathering its better to leave choice open as much as possible anyway in order to profile and chart the 'global' attitude (i know i dont use the correct dictionary words always but language is derived from context, right, after all there's not a school in the world i have ever finished to the point of getting that piece of insignificant paper (to me) but i dont think that voids me of the right to opinion or understanding) and certainly not of the right to speak and think in brackets and passing 15 timelines in one sentence before i get back to the point after a cup of two of #offtopic ;-))

The above comment of mine was just an addition I sent to everyone who participated in the experiment. :) So you cannot have already answered it because I added it after you gave your numbers on the existing proposals. But never mind. We may come back to this. I haven't made an evaluation yet, since I would like to have more participants. If not, than I may do the results with those who joined. No hurry.
