RE: Looking for the Sun, learning to sling a gun
Hmm, maybe the platform, and the bulk of the people on it, failed themselves; Certainly the top echelon for sure. But then...They make massive rewards and so feel like they have succeeded. I don’t think you've Failed at all really. Human nature is greedy and whilst not all humans are greedy people the trait recurrs in our lives over and over. People want. Wars start. People gain. People lose. It’s no different on steemit I think. You know how I feel about it I guess.
”even the pacifists must learn to sling a gun”
Agreed.
It is all very interesting how much can be learned here about society and ourselves. It represents the real world quite closely except, the top is slightly more transparent here which might mean, it gives us a view few normally get to see.
Yes, makes sense. I’ve learned to lower my expectations of people I guess. Assume (expect) the worst and when they deliver it I’m not surprised or disappointed. If they over achieve then I get a pleasant surprise. A cynical view point maybe.
Hope for the best, expect the worst.
