RE: SteemFest² Speakers Inspire My New Upvoting System!
"Giving without expecting anything in return is better than receiving for the long run."
Why is this the rule for whales, but the opposite is practically encouraged for minnows?
I can see I'm going to have to write a whole series called "Minnow Marxism".
I appreciate the engagement and dialogue, but honestly wasn't anticipating a public breakdown of each of my statements (and, yes, I know that I made a public comment to generate this). I respect all of your efforts and will reach out via discord. Re: your question here, you're making just as much of a generalized assumption as you feel I did. I see that you personally have used auto-voting for a good cause, so I'm glad for that. To be continued on private chat.
"you're making just as much of a generalized assumption as you feel I did."
What assumption would that be? I'm just trying to accurately describe what I percive as the "democratic majority's" viewpoint on this topic (ie minnows good, deserve more - whales selfish, need to give more).
Incidentally, I don't consider myself a whale, so I'm kind of in the middle of this situation. I'm just a perennial devil's advocate that likes to ask uncomfortable questions that hopefully prompt discussion. Don't interpret any curmudgeonly questions as offense or aggression (if possible, heh).
I'll keep an eye out for your dm.
