This post is a perfect example of what is wrong with the platform and the imbalance of voting power/reward.
As I currently write this comment, this post is sitting at a $11.15 potential payout with a whopping 217 votes.
217 votes is a ton of votes knowing Steemit has roughly 1k daily active users. (last number I read posted from Dan I believe)
But yet we see "shit posts" where an author magically pops out from some mystical magical fucking writers dream land and everything they post from post #1 is pure fucking gold.
The majority of content creators I have seen on this website so far have a high enough IQ to see through this bullshit when it is laying there in massive pile.
You can cover up a pile of shit (or in this case bullshit) but it's still a pile of shit.
