Don't Follow Me, I'm Lost Too!

in #introduceyourself7 years ago (edited)

@corbettreport Introduced Me!

This is my first post.

Remember those ubiquitous car bumper stickers? They were killed off by the equally as ubiquitous Sat Navs we all drive around with, we seem to know where we are going these days, right?

I say I'm lost, more like I've lost faith in many things they said were true.

Never having been much of a one for 'Social Networking', I gave up on Twitter after several years when I decided it was just 'hot air' following the UK general election of 2017. Only when James Corbett pointed out that back in the day Facebook and Twitter would have been classed as surveillance agencies did it become clear what the real cause of my phobic relationship with these platforms was.

Steemit To The Rescue

I'm here to try and play a part in a big change that Steemit can bring about to make us all proud of, comfortable and happy with the world we live in.
