Thank you for supporting those not using the bots. If enough begin using this tag it will become a popular search to replace Hot and Trending where we know the placement was not simply bought.

Thank you for the thank you.

I read this article and found it to be well articulated and well reasoned.

As soon as people show up, it will always be tainted by those people, the good with the bad. The grass will never be greener, and to think that rich people will not buy their way to influence there too is not based on reality.

I know everyone so wishes this statement was not true, but in-fact it is so central to our ecosystem, and not just Steemit. One has to wonder is there any reason to fight for equality ... but then, should we stop, the small resistance that provides some balance will surely be noticed in its absence once the depravity of selfishness is all that remains.

Keep up the good fight!
