Ok this is really a video showing elephants herd running to meet a new rescued baby elephant, but I couldn't help but make the comparison.
Right in the feels! eyes watering, this is like a steemit herd coming to welcome a new steemiter who had just been abused and used on other social media for TOO long!
Those trunks are like all the steem and SBD being sent to the new steemit user!

Watch a whole herd run to greet a new rescued baby elephant, "Dok Geaw", at Elephant Nature Park. Dok Geaw is one year and nine months old. He is an orphaned child...but it looks like he will not have too much trouble finding a new family.

I would like for these Elephant people to get onto Steemit! Imagine how much money they could make for the benefit of the elephants! I feel like we could raise SO much money to help Animals. And theres no reason why we cant help people and animals at the same time. Humans can for the most part help themselves and take care of themselves , but in modern world some animals dont have that luxury when we take away their natural habitats etc, you all know the story, and its honestly not something we should be feeling guilty about, lets just start fixing these problems, and raising money for animals in need.
(Another great video of an elephant freed after years in chains)
Animals making money is not new, there have been famous dogs cats pigs Chimps, in Hollywood for over a century, but recently household pets, DOgs, cats birds have all becomes so famous that their owners have to become full time "managers"
SO imagine when an Animal Shelter decides to post pictures of the cats and dogs on steemit :( oh god, its going to be difficult...we will have to upvote all these people trying to save all these animals, and we have the money to do it, not only can we pay for shelters to become no kill shelters, but we can pay to even hire homeless people to pet sit a bunch of animals, and
I have seenthis done through social media...I even remember some girl who "rescued" all these live mice from being snake food, not cool for the snakes who require live food, but still a noble cause and she ended up crowdfunding all the money she needed to take care of like hundreds of mice LOL
Anyway there are people out there who would take care of thousands of animals if they could and why not?
Im sorry, i had to do it and post this screenhot, these images make me cry, but dont worry most of the animals you see here have been rescued thanks to the social media ...
We can actually raise the money to have that big imaginary farm out in the countryside....where all the stray dogs and cats and live :( we actually can do it, the marketcap of steemit is like 300 million dollars now :( we would only need a few dozen million to take care of all the animals in need in the United States...and I bet we could help all sorts of endangered and abused animals worldwide with steemit.... if animal shelters start posting super sad posts on behalf of different animals, offering the chance to pay for that animal to get adopted and have someone pay for their pet sitting...omg its over, can you imagine? God, people would be upvoting those posts, offering to adopt the pets, it would be so sad, I feel like good charities and charitable people can really use steemit to do ALOT of good in this world
We can be patrons to Animals all around the world in need! We have enough money here to enact GREAT change in the world!
And remember in the Zeitgeist movies where they promised us a world where we wouldnt have to work but we could if we wanted, where we could make art and share it and get paid for that? venus project style? We are here! Steemit is that future! Universal Basic Income an Fully Automated Luxury Capitalism all rolled up into one! And things like UberEats will solve world hunger! We will just deliver food directly to whoever is starving via drones or uber delivery!
And we have enough resources to take care of every human and animal on earth that cant take care of itself! I see a bright bright future of LOVE and warmth and compassion where turbo free market unfettered capitalism for the masses, not just for a few elite, solves our problems through sheer abundance of whatever we need! And we'll have enough extra cheap homes and extra cheap food that even the homeless will be buying and selling microhomes to each other! becoming mini landlords, where animals can earn an income, where autistic or disabled artists can still earn an ACTUAL living off sharing their art Not from pity but because they actually contributed something we all value! like this post https://steemit.com/art/@positivesteem/my-autistic-son-the-emerging-artist
I really enjoyed it and upvoted it! so did many others! I can see steemit as a place where previously unemployed people who couldn't participate in the economy can now participate and thrive and add value and gain fans, when they previously would be seen
So I really hope we come up with a way to keep steemit passwords safe! I would hate to see disabled people loosing their steemit accounts. I would love to create some sort of steemit password bank, overseen by some top steemit developers, where you can send them your password for safe keeping, because people are just not used too having to hold a password like its some secret code noone can ever get back for them! Anyway I hope we can take care of our most vulnerable users the same way I want us to take care of our most vulnerable living things
I know this GIF is overused, but I want us to live in a world where you can be rich and not feel bad about those who are starving! Wouldn't it be nice to know that we took care of the 800 million humans who go to bed hungry every night We have the food! They just need the money to buy it! And we have the homes, to house the 100,000 chronically homeless in America, so why should so many people be homeless! Lets just fix all the problems! So we can go to bed happy every night, knowing that no one is going to bed hungry, and no animal should unnecessarily suffer, we have the resources to literally take care of everyone! Too believe that we will always have poor people, is a fallacy and an inhuman monstrous world view!
(Global Poverty rates Are Going down overall all over the world! We never look at the good news were always focusing on the negatives! But maybe we must focus on the negatives in order to fix them! Maybe we should just move on after we fix a problem and immediately try fixing the rest of the problems! I can see the need for both sides)
We Can an we will fix all the problems! all the big ones! Hunger, Homelessness, and I would like to add Animals in there, to stop all mass animal abuse, upgrade the world's slaughter houses, seems like its a lot of work, not if everyone does a little bit at a time, and just look at the progress we have made over the last 100 years! I sincerely believe we can solve all of these problems, the ones that make children cry, so we can tuck our kids in every night and explain to them that no stray cats or dogs get "put down" anymore, theyre all taken care of, or how we dont kill whales anymore, or how we dont have homeless people anymore after they built microhome villages for them all, or how no one goes hungry in planet Earth in 2020!
We got rid of so many diseases, we dont worry about the plague or polio anymore! Big problems do go away with technology! we CAN do it! And steemit and bitcoin and blockchain IS a HUGE part of this! dont underestimate the power of steemit!
