    @banditqueen by extremist logic, everything basically is plagiarism. To so much as make a cultural reference, is plagiarism. And cultural appropriation if you're not of that culture. That is the extremist mind. Of course the extremist mind also thinks that they can say and do whatever they want, it is simply just that no one else can. It is an elitist mentality. It is classic. It is historic. It is this idea of "purity" and "conformity" that has been the primary driver of everything from two people getting into a fist fight over an ideological discussion, to war and genocide. I personally have little faith in humans, plural. A human I can like. A human I can respect. A human can earn my trust. A human, can be a good moral person. But people are aggressive panicky animals that have a bloodlust they aren't even consciously aware of. The drive to feel a false sense of superiority to over compensate for trauma. Maybe they were beaten as a child? Maybe molested? Maybe they just weren't as popular as they wanted to be and they go through life with a chip on their shoulder. Every person who acts shitty towards others has reasons to justify their behavior. Quite frankly if we're too unenlightened and to addicted to drama to unite in a civil way against tyranny, then we deserve all the war, all the genocide and all of the abuse that people like The Marky Shark can rape us with. And we deserve it as a fair consequence for our gross negligence. I see Marky as an opportunity, not a burden. I'm curious to see whether or not people will unite and use this as an opportunity to improve Steemit, or just let themselves be cucked by Marky and any other elitists who think they reserve the right to push their false sense of moral superiority onto others. We deserve all of the CryBullies, SJWS, Tyrants and War Mongers that are unleashed upon us, if we are going to continue to fail to learn from the mistakes of history.
