Why There Is Not The Negativity On Steemit Like Other Social Media Sites

Anyone who spends a short period of time on here quickly realizes that Steemit is different than the other social media sites. Whereas they are cesspools for negativity and personal attacks, we do not really see that on here. Overall, most people are positive with a friendly approach.

Even when people disagree with the particular author, the comments, if any are left, are thoughtful and respectful. This is a far cry from the likes of Facebook or YouTube where people call each other all kinds of vile stuff.

So the question is why is there such a difference on Steemit compared to the other sites?

To start, I think the fact that most are here to make money means that our compensation is tied to how well we play with others. Those who have a confrontational attitude, can quickly see their reputation pushed to zero. At the same time, those people can be ostracized to the degree where their posts/comments make nothing. This simply is not sound business.

I guess we see this behavior in the "real" world too. Have you ever noticed how that asshole boss is super kind to customers? When we have money on the line, we often sign a different tune.

This is the most obvious reason and one that will probably continue.

That said, could there be something else going on?

I believe there is another factor which will expand as cryptocurrencies become more mainstream and people start to realize what is happening. As I stated on a number of occasions, we are heading towards an Era of Abundance. The old model is going to be moved out for blockchain. With blockchain, a decentralized system, money is going to be awarded to people who are presently not participating in the creation of wealth around the world.

On Steemit, I think we already see that attitude. People who regularly read my writings know I am a bit optimistic about where the price of STEEM will be down the road. I put together the 1KSP program because I believe having an account of $100K by the end of 2018 will be life changing money for most. In fact, for those who have 100 SP, which is an easily attainable level, I think you will have that kind of money in a few years.

At present, many people who signed on have accounts worth $500-$1000 for doing something they enjoy doing. This provides some insight into what is going to take place as this blockchain gains in popularity. Those same accounts will be worth $10,000-$20,000 when STEEM hits $20, which is not a pie-in-the sky figure.

Therefore, I believe there is a lot less negativity on Steemit simply because there is not the same fear among the user base that exists elsewhere. Angry is a very common way people mask their fear. We live in a society that had the scarcity mindset instilled in it by the banksters. This creates a hopelessness in the minds of many. The Internet offers a perfect medium for one to try and gain some semblance of control. By blasting another person, anonymously, one feels that he or she has some power. Of course, this is an illusion since we know the banksters control every aspect of society.

Fortunately, blockchain (STEEM) is going to change that.

While a great deal of this is conjecture at this point, most on here see the benefits to STEEM. We just had a major pullback in crypto and STEEM held above $4. The pricing action on the token is solid. I believe most people can justify, in their minds, a much higher price. Again, even an account with a few hundred SP will see a value of many thousands of dollars. Considering many people only started in the last couple months, this is quite a feat.

The first 1M on STEEM will be the early adopters. I am certain that every person who is on here at this time and dedicated to contributing on a regular basis will profit handsomely. Naturally, this can be taken many different ways so I will spell it out: hundreds of thousands of dollars are going to be awarded to each of these people over the next few years. This is the opportunity before each of us.

Hence, what is there to be scared of? Most of our financial woes will be disappearing.

For that reason, why upset the apple cart?
