The challenge is: how do you make more people care?.
Values like accountability and integrity are seen as 'burdens' and 'inconvenient' in a world which rewards material accumulation.
In addition, material accumulation is a major, if not the only, motivation for most of people to do anything. And if we can find easy ways to do it, we will choose them at the expense of other options which promise non-monetary types of fulfillment or rewards. Our choices show what we care about.
Most of us, admittedly, joined Steemit because we learnt/heard that we could earn money by producing content. Some quit after realizing that producing content is one thing: getting noticed and getting paid is totally different. It is hard work. Hard work and uncertain pay. Definitely not 'care- inspiring' for most of us.
Then there are those of us who buy votes and self vote. I've seen the argument that - the system allows it. That's shifting blame. It is also a justification not to care, for those who may experience a twinge of conscience.
And there's a lot of blaming going on around here. Which takes a lot of energy. Instead of figuring out how each of us can grow the grand experiment that is Steemit.
The thing about integrity is this: it is not a shirt that one can take off to change or wash once it gets stained. You either care or you don't.
We need more people who care.
The BS ideology of "code-= law" keeps people from even wanting to change things. These are the blockhead programmers who view code as some supreme justifier for anything being allowed... it's sad. They can;t think beyond it. Code can fucking change! I tried to get things to change in early 2017, but after months of being flagged I left disheartened... been back for 2 weeks about ;)
Thank you for the feedback.
