I don't really care whether you think I'm a good person. That's the emotional reward that slacktivists look for by virtue signaling. I want to learn how to alleviate immediate suffering more effectively.
I don't have any hope for making changes by getting more involved in politics. Maybe that's my error? But the Utah solution can be implemented near-term and on a city by city basis, I have a lot more hope for that.
The opportunity I try to spread is to teach people what Steemit is and how to use it effectively in a couple minutes. What sort of things to post, what tags to use, what introduceyourself is, etc.
The main problem I have encountered so far is the language barrier. Even those who speak a little bit of English often don't speak enough to understand complex instructions. I'll think on this though, and devise a solution. Printed cards maybe? I would need help translating them though, into Spanish mainly.
You are heads an shoulders above many if most of us. If ONLY for expressing this concern. I feel less of a man for NOT doing so.
You have my respect. For whatever that's worth.
