To be fair, within the post, I only referred to steemit as a hustle, a waste of time, f'ed up, crap, shit and a sham... haha. I apologize. I was misled, disappointed, confused and pissed off. I did however tag the post with the tag "scam" and have since removed that word. You are correct, that is an unfair tag. You know, the love and kindness and understanding represented within these comments is clear. I would say it's uncommon among social media comments. This community is different and the amount of encouragement here, rather than insult, is striking. And it's appreciated. I want to thank all those who have commented here for being as warm and genuine as you all have been. Thank you all.
