I really don't know what to think anymore to be honest. Conflicts like this if left unresolved become toxic and obviously, i think that we are witnessing a toxic situation. The constant warring is just getting too ridiculous. I was thinking of teaching a class of high school students to come onto Steemit, but until we have some really good ways of dealing with this kind of conflict, I am hesitant. I see that I'm not alone in this feeling of hesitancy. I think by continuing to avoid the central conflict, we will be disadvantaged. There are a lot of smart people in here. Are we too stubborn to find a solution to this? Surely, there is a way.....
