RE: Hive-Naija Weekend Engagement #36 - "Hive Struggles"

in Speak Peace2 years ago

I actually I find this very disrespectful and condescending as you don't know why my stake is low.

I lost my mom and even before that I know how much Hive I got to try to savage the situation. You know one reason i still have the support? Because not everyone judges me the way you do without finding reasons.

Sort:  

So telling me I allowed my offline friends or whatever is really offensive

I am not going to apologize for what I said, Sam. I know about your mom, everyone does, as long as we are all here, we might have heard about it somehow. Maybe we saw your update or someone we know reblogged and we saw it. Again, accept my condolences.

But you have to know that if you are trying to bring us all together and you are beginning to worry that we need to be rewarded for always showing up for you and boosting your idea, then, you have to change a lot of things. You have to make sacrifices

We didn't complain about the rewards, you did. We just love coming around and sharing our thoughts on the questions you come up with every weekend. But if you suddenly feel the need to give us support for always being here and making this work, please tell me why you shouldn't hold up on some of your expenses or look for a balance so you can build that stake

I am not trying to compare you right now, but, experience the say is the best teacher, so pay attention to everyone who has started something that brings people together and tell me if you are not seeing that they are making those sacrifices.

I understand the neediness to spend, we are Nigerians remember, and oftentimes, we feel we should show the next person we have this money, instead of using the money to invest in our future. So, forgive me if I think you are using your mum's death as an excuse to churn out a great deal of money instead of building for your future. She's dead and she's gone, you are still here, and the fact that you are still showing up and trying to foster relationships among us requires that you look at this through a different spectrum.

You know you might be thinking you'll be able to keep coming and using the pity mindset to drain your account but it will not do you any good in the long.

Leave sentiment aside, find a balance, a solution, anything, and build.

You seem like a "know it all" person. You're a bit delusional because you say things like you know exactly what's happening? Who says I'm complaining about the rewards? Just you! - I only said I'd like to add more based on the High numbers of comments.

What do you know about me? This a bad mentality you need to kill. - Do you have any idea of what's left behind after she left?

Do you know how much pain and struggle I still go through everyday? Do you have any idea how much debts I've been In for the last two years even before coming back to Hive?

You've insulted not just me but you haven't shown any respect. I'm showing up because I need the money, sometimes all I do is post and go. Because I have to do other things to meet up. Thanks for provoking me, I hope you find solace in your all-knowing and comparing mentality.

Most of my friends that supports me know this, But y'all out there thinking "The pity card" - This mentality is trash, people go through alot on a daily.

Even if I empty my account, it wont be enough. But yeah, say whatever you like. It's a open social media.

@wolfofnostreet , This mindset is something that is not just annoying but shouldn't be allowed. I'm sure you of all people know my financial struggle. Isn't it good for people to ask questions instead of assuming and comparing to the general public?
