don't repressive governments monitor people's internet anyway? it doesn't really matter what name they use to log on somewhere if their line is being monitored^^
but on the topic, people have the feeling that they can't make a difference probably because they are made to feel that way by situations like people talking about setting up a channel from 100k sps because the others don't have a say etc etc.
i can't emphasize enough, building and maintaining trust is very very important for a community to grow!
sometimes i think it's just a tactic by certain people to give people the extra feeling that they can't decide anything. because if the opponent is intimidated, he might give up without even trying to fight.
we can clearly look at the numbers. most Sps are not on individual whales.
ultimately, everyone here can make a difference, even if they only have 1 sps, they can influence people to vote through persuasion, sympathy, dickpics or whatever, and ultimately move many millions of sps
There are ways to get around repressive governments monitoring you. VPN, TOR, etc.
You're right, trust is a big thing. I think that if more people understand the brilliance of this weighted voting system, they will realize that they can trust the whales to try to do what's best for the game. Since the whales are the ones at risk of losing the most should the game fail.
so the last paragraph sounds like a bad advertisement: trust your whale nearby, he will take care of you 🤣
and we both know that this is not the case for everyone
Yeah, lol, you can trust the whale to look out for the game, because that means thy are looking out for themselves. You can't trust them to look out for you personally.😂
