I Am Entitled To Money, Please Give It Now Or I'll Cry

in #steemit8 years ago

I've noticed quite a few posts floating around where people complain that they're not getting as much money as they were hoping to, usually citing how unfair it is that their hard work and effort is poured into something that ends up being ignored while something like a person's butt or yet another guide to Steemit Success gets literally thousands of dollars.

Granted, there are also high-value posts of people pouring their heart out for all the world to see or an interesting take on a controversial or nuanced subject, but let's ignore those for a moment because it'll kind of ruin the unsteady foundation I've built my point upon.

My fellow minnows, I ask of you that we go on a quest, nay, a crusade, to make sure that our effort is rewarded with the fame it rightfully deserves in our own eyes! We must slaughter the whales and consume their flesh! We must force the ones who refuse to die to upvote all of our posts under penalty of... uh... well, they won't die,  so, uh... I guess we could make them listen to shitty music or something.

The way Steemit works is completely unfair. I post something every couple of days or so and my account is only worth forty dollars! On Reddit, you couldn't even fathom how many zeroes of dollars I'm worth! I was a king! Nay, I was a GOD! All trembled before my might! ALL HAIL MILDEW!

ALL!

HAIL!

MILDEW!

...er, I mean, I'm leaving Smeetit forever now because nobody throws money at me loves me. You've just lost the most talented artist of this or any generation. I hope you're happy.
