Yeah, you are right. There needs to be more room in the cryptosphere for various political leanings. Regarding Facebook, I think “take out” is relative. I think Facebook will shrink, not grow. I think it’s growth compared to Steem will look pitiful within 2-5 years. I also don’t know how it’s possibld for Facebook to buy the Steemit/Steem. If that happens I’m sure there will be a hardfork and a new platform will be created in opposition to the Facebook controlled version. It’s open source and community ran. I don’t think the top witnesses would approve of this buy out and would most likely leave and take a large chunk of the community with them. So I don’t think a Facebook buy out would be positive. If they do buy the intent would be to kill it. So I’m just generally against the whole idea presented here. Apologies if I came across a bit strong. I left social media 3 years ago, until I found Steem.

No problem at all my friend! I love a good discussion! For sure Steem's growth will dwarf Facebook's over the next few years and it has already taken Some market share (at least 80% of my time that would have been on Facebook, I'm on here, the rest mostly just for trying to increase my following on here by opening people's eyes up to steemit ON Facebook)! :)
