My reply to @Khrom and the 'not so obvious' - illustrating the problems on blurt.

in blurtpolitics •  last year  (edited)

I think I know your problem. You are an idealist like i was. You want to show people their corruption but no one listens.
I'll tell you this. Don't delude yourself into changing something because it won't help anyway :P

During the pandemic, I attended many protests, participated in many actions, and wrote many articles and comments. All based on facts, all showing the absurdity of what is happening. No one listened... No one except people who realized for themselves that something was wrong.

The rest wanted to thank us for sacrificing their time and risking being whipped, hit by a stun grenade or even imprisoned (this happened to several of my colleagues) to save their miserable asses from their own stupidity: baton, prison, sanitary segregation or social alienation.

People don't want to listen and never will. We said there is no pandemic, they didn't want to listen and stayed at home, wore masks... we said don't get vaccinated, they didn't listen and now they are dying...

So the only thing you can do is stand as the 1%, surrounded by a cordon almost larger than the number of protesters, just like I stood there in Warsaw:

IMG_20210630_224036_526-1280x750.jpg

...and create a problem for those 80% who would like to sweep common sense under the carpet. And hope that the remaining 19%, who are quite knowledgeable but not so brave, will gain courage and deal with the 80% who have no brains of their own.

And I am doing the same here as one of 30 witnesses who have influence and as one of 21 whose voice is decisive.

I stand there and create a problem for those who would like to painlessly introduce tyranny here, I talk to those who see the matter similarly and I hope that eventually some front of change will emerge.

Because changes are very possible.

it doesn't have to be 17 +1 witnesses, it can be 200 or 2000 but I will tell you honestly, referring to what I said about the pandemic above, that the less the better.

If there are fewer witnesses, there is a greater risk of a specific group taking over the blockchain, but there is also a greater chance of throwing this group off their seats. Blurt, as well as hive and steem, are characterized by one good thing which I always give as a big +.

There is no such thing as a "witness term" or an election, and a vote cast can be withdrawn as quickly as gained. This makes changing these 20 items if people decide to, easy and quick and can happen within a few days.

Now imagine that decisions are influenced by 170 out of 200 or even 1700 out of 2000 witnesses... if pandemic statistics show that 80% of the population is passive and just listens to TV, how much greater chance do you think there would be that among 200 witnesses or 2000 Will you find those 170 or 1,700 who will accept the proposal of one influential totalitarian? ;)

You are fighting windmills here because it is not this blockchain that is broken but global society. And as long as 80-90% of global society follows a group of sheep showing their faces on TV and does not think for itself, no programmer will create a system that is not filled with corruption, profit and selfishness.

Here is no easy and simple function to close the mouth. It is possible to freeze an account, but it is not as easy as clicking delete and it does not go unnoticed. there is no demonetization function and these two things already mean that Blurt is better than 90% of the Internet ;]

In my opinion, this blockchain is one of the best current attempts to create a system for mature and thinking people, not children, but the problem is that children also participate in it. What you see in the Blurt is the result of what would happen at the beginning if, for example, anarcho-capitalism, which you seem to support, was introduced overnight.

Everything here can be changed with Hardforks in a better direction. What is now is the result of the mentality that created steem and apart from the removal of the downvote function, no other significant changes have been introduced so far. Interestingly, it happened because the MD tried to block your account, so Investors and the community reacted and there was an impasse in which no one could make anything for over a year until everyone reached an agreement. For me this is proof that it works. In a broken system, you would be long gone.

...and ^this ^ is why you should be president ! ..lol..

Good comment - in the early days of steem there wasn't enough time in the day to post, read and reply to such posts/comments - then the system showed itself to be 'not fit for the (supposedly intended) purpose.

I'm not quite the idealist you think, my friend - and I'm not an anarcho capitalist , either - soz @small1axe !lol) - see the same belief in the pareto principle as the reason I'm not, and as you stated with the problems of 'the 80%'.

As for your perspectives on DPoS - we do differ. Not from ideological issues, but pragmatic ones.
Pragmatic issues concerning the human condition, and the various psychologies - that can be clearly seen to manifest themselves over the last 6 years.

If I'm incorrect, time will tell - but I see no evidence, as yet - that suggests I am.

As such, I will 'do my thing'...according to my own ethical framework and free market principles.

Cheers, matey.

Sorry , even if it seems lots of people thinking they live on a other planet ,. there still is only one planet .
So no space ships needed ,. a truth bombing plane or ridicule missile will just do fine .
This so called war is only a mental construct of the mind and not for real .
I am a non violent person ,. i only shoot mental bullets straight from my mind .
If they become physical on me for that ,. i will become violent just to defend myself .

I want to choke my dick with the force.

Just watch a episode of Buck Rogers ,. and see how it was pushing the alphabet community .
And the plan to create Ai .

That armband and metal kid are enough to choke a real mans dick .
