RE: Thoughts on Steem's complicated Politics & Witnesses

in #steem6 years ago (edited)

There was a time in the past where such leaders were aptly referred to as "statesmen." The connotation being that leaders of this noblest distinction were incorruptible, and held steadfast to their word. Character, honesty, truthfulness, and integrity were paramount in elevating one to the status of a diplomatic statesman.

Those were the good old days, way before the reference points of most who are alive today. I hope and pray that one day, such noble statesmen will one-day return to the fore. I have yet, however, to see any such signs in this regard...

The masses, in my view, do not need organizing as it were. I believe that "the masses" are quite capable of self-organizing quite efficiently... It's the "politics" in my view, that tends to screw everything up. But hey, that's just me, and what the hell do I know... :-)
