Yeah the system is broken all the way around! I was 100% a product of it and I allowed it to shape me. Thankfully a few years ago I broke the mold they had set for me, I made it out. Now all I can do is use my experiences to hopefully make some type of difference.
And hell yeah steem is the shit! I can’t believe how much authority it has on google alone. Post be ranking! I wish I found out about this years ago!
