A great post. Relevant to me at present, as i've just joined steemit and have been watching arguments between steemians over " rewards" and authors who just post to make money and don't add quality.
I think we can see this most in the area of crypto currency.
I see authors making huge rewards by giving faulty financial advice using practices from a different paradigm. "Technical analysis", they call it.
They set themselves up as "experts" when they clearly aren't. They lift graphs and other titbits from other forecasts around the net and them pass them off as their own advice o crypto. Not only are they taking huge rewards but they are giving bogus advice. If you attempt to tell people that you get comments from people who treat crypto like a religion and will hear nothing negative, even when correct. I'm a newbie and I found out last night that these self styled "whales" can target me by down flagging all my posts and that's already happening.

I think it is everywhere but when there is money involved, people are both greedier and looking for it more.
Yes, astrology.
