Thanks for your feedback buddy! I personally differentiate between a surpressing system (using a DV button as oppression to destroy people, like on Hive) and a pure reward system like here on Blurt, not terrorizing people into doing something against their own will, simply to survive...
I agree with you, that the reward system may not always be fair, but nobody is being destroyed here.
A 'pure reward system' has to be based on_something_, does it not ?
Yes?
No?
What then, is the criteria?
THAT is the relevant issue - the criteria.
A socialist systems criteria is very different than any free market criteria.
(agreement with perspectives of those in power, for example).
Free market criteria - supply demand, and no authority to decide 'which is of value' and which isn't...
This is why socialism will always end up eating itself - it must consume - parasite fashion - off the producers lower down in the hierarchy.
Eventually the food chain consumes those at lowe levels, and goes further and further upwards in the direction of the hierarchy ( towards the central authority).
Then it collapses.
So the goal here would be to get the rewards, in the best way we can, to the manual producers?
I think this can be achieved here... We need lots of communities (coming soon), so they can vote within their own space for their own people/crowd and we need many many many many more whales, voting THEIR people/content/crowds/communities... The more of them, the better the rewards are widely spread.
No, the rewards going to those that deserve it through hard work, creativity, and original content, would be not be the goal - but merely the symptom of a system that works/is set up to reward those mentioned above.
That is a free market system.
Not a socialist system.
That can never be achieved with the current socialist system.
Socialism (modern day liberals and left winger ideology ), requires - no, NEEDS (like oxygen to breathe) a construct like I mentioned above- a a parasitical, never ending centralization of assets (tokens).
Communities are a facade that may work on the local level - the structure underneath remains the same. The ideology drives the system.
The dynamics still remains the same (over time).
How do we get 'many more whales'?..by increasing the token price via purchases.
Thus enriching the socialist parasite class for no real reason.
It would cost at least 20x LESS to use the available code, and set up your own crypto and DPoS governing system and be in control o fit, than buying into this one - why on earth would anyone do that?
Starting to see the issue? ...One of ideology. One of control, no matter what the cost.
One of systemic failure, over time.
As the current system stands (all DpoS) - the failure is baked in.
(and this isnt even involving BTC as being the engine behind all the other coins, nor the much bigger, wider world outside of crypto )
No way. As a witness, I have seen what it needs to rock this place in the last year..
No, they should buy NOW... It's cheap ;D
I see that differently... My best example is the german community over on Hive... They vote their stuff and their comments, not those of the Hive bosses... They stay with the likes of their own...
You're seeing the model in 'low resolution' (close up, grainy).
It's about _systems built models _, not smaller instances....
I'll try to do a post tomorrow, to make it clearer...
Cheers,matey !
We all have to work with what we've got here... I know, it's not perfect, but it's better than most of the other stuff on the web.... ;D Looking forward to your post!
IMO Hive screwed up with the concept of grayed-out content, hidden from view and requiring effort to find. With missing images and links. Maybe certain offensive content should be treated that way? I don't know. But the way it's used on Hive is far more sinister. It's de facto censorship, without calling it that. Downvotes are one problem, but the whole hidden content thing is just as bad. Blurt fixes that.
