I can't speak for all of you. The community will have to decide how to answer these questions. Just remember that you make Steem what it is. The content which you choose to upvote becomes the bricks upon which Steem is built. Does it offer value?

Did you read to the end before you fired off your half-cocked rant? Nowhere in that entire post did I once tell anyone else what to do, now did I? I asked a question to start a dialogue.

I support any post that is original...

I would contend that there is nothing original about the one-liners that are plastered across an image and re-posted ad nauseum. That was really the crux of the point which I was trying to make, in fact.

My post has certainly succeeded in starting a conversation, hasn't it? Is there not value in that? Otherwise we are all just shouting into an echo chamber without ever really listening to each other or considering any other point of view. The beauty of constructive discussion is that you may collectively reach new understanding regarding a subject. This is how you grow as a human being.
