TBH, I think you are losing your touch. ' Blah, blah, blah, stop whining and shill harder'. Whatever dude. Do you really believe that the good content that doesn't make bank is really that shithouse? Sure, a lot of it is pretty bad, but not all of it. Yeah it's a capitalist system. But even if this blockchain is irreducibly capitalist to the detriment of creative merit - not that I'm 100% convinced that it is is - it needn't be that way on very blockchain everywhere. I mean, what you wrote is till pretty good, but it's starting to sound like you are making excuses for a system that deep down you know is a bit fucked up, but that you rely on nonetheless.

Do you feel bad? Is is snagging at your soul? If you are sober enough, do you occasionally wake up at 3am feeling guilty, but don't have the balls to admit to yourself why that might be?

If the answer is yes to any of those, it's probably nothing to do with your continuing support of an unjust system - it's just irritation with people who keep gratuitously expecting that they should ever do more than fight over the crumbs of those lucky enough to be born to rich parents. Well boo-hoo motherfucker, those inconvenient people with their outrageous expectations or fairness and unreasonable demands for food and shelter aren't going away - there's more an more of them signing up for Steemit every day. So strap your self in buttercup. Whining? Pfft! You ain't seen nothing yet!
