To put out a manifesto you must want: ABC , to fulminate against 1, 2, 3, to fly into a rage and sharpen your wings to conquer and disseminate little abcs and big ABCs, to sign, shout, swear, to organize prose into a form of absolute and irrefutable evidence, to prove your non plus ultra and maintain that novelty resembles life just as the latest-appearance of some whore proves the essence of God.

I am not putting out a manifesto. I am evoking no theory, recognizing no theory as a reaction to cages. Cages of labeling, cages of definitions, cages of thoughts succumbed to the status quo! I know no theory except freedom, I act on no other theory except freedom! We think we are free until the moment we start move and we feel the chains in our feet. We have learned to obey the rules we didn’t chose, we are forced to live the common mind’s story and not our own, not the one we were born for; we are the pawns in the chess game. Useless, disposable. But are we really?
How many of you believe you deserve better? How many of you utterly feel that your talents are being unrecognized, because the status quo is already calcified by the million, billion dollars industries of mediocrity promotion. They are numbing our mind; we are the spectators of ignorance in action, the worst bacteria of all. We are subtly forced to run in our mazes for the rest of our lives; unless we decide to get our power back we are destined to be trapped into the imperative of the status quo.
But if you don’t want to die in someone else’s system you have to build your own. This is how Steem looks to me. Meritocratic as it is, it is the ultimate meter of our abilities; rewarded. In the chaotic and fascist cyber-world of the already future, a movement like Steem resembles to a revolution. Its heart beats powerfully, its energy vibrates but it will piss some people off, the surface will be quiet but the underground will pulsate hence it will not be televised. Steemon!
