RE: What would I do if I got 1000 Steem tomorrow?
I'm so sorry to hear about all of that. We get pieces of news here and there, but there's so much being reported from so many places it just seems to jump around where it's the most dire or most salacious. Wars and terrorism or what the President did or didn't do.
I sincerely hope you're able to accomplish what you want to do. One person can't really solve a country's problems, but they can try to help a few. You're very good to be thinking about others. But then, what else can you do, right? The need is right there, and it's unavoidable.
Stay safe.
I will try to stay safe :) And agreed; the key is to give as much as we can no matter where we are. I hope that in a few months I will have grown enough to make all of these dreams become true.
As for the news you get, I think that it's part of a series of campaigns of disinformation. I don't know how it works, but I know that the government has many news networks spreading views that are very different to reality. Even though sometimes they are easily falsifiable, they disorient the readers and may cause a strong disregard for the situation in the country.
I don't trust much of it, anyway. Ours isn't officially state run, but it is for all intents and purposes. Haven't been able to figure out what they have to gain by it. They may have had the power at one time to bring people to power, but theirs such a healthy distrust of them now, I don't think that's so true. They've got so much misinformation going that they can't possibly keep track of it all.
That said, reality is still reality, no matter how they want to try and spin it.
