You have a talent for this !

Can you break down the essence of war and peace in three sentences?

And then Tolstoy said..
Shit, barely anybody can write in this day and age.
Quantity over quality ought to lock my place in space and time down!
Then he handed his beer to his friend and sat down at the stylus.

It's sort of like making a million tokens without worrying about finishing the last two years roadmaps. Same concept.

ha ha probably
actually, SuperFreshMeat! how's this,
War Or Peace?

Probably Tolstoy just took a hella pretentious take on "Why can´t we all just get along ;( "

Soooo, when do I get my dead horse?

Apologies...receive my posthumous equine?

If Vermin Supreme was in charge we'd all have Ponies :/

Still on my way riding it rite to ya doorstep!

I still watch this damn thing at least 3 loops every time she posts it :D

It's Russian literature. This is easy.

"Life is hard and dirty. I have to do terrible things. Life remains the same."

That probably sums up an entire undergraduate degree and Russian literature in three sentences. With five sentences, I could probably get into serious distrust of any hierarchical governmental system and the boiling resentment of a self-selected peasant class, but that may require a few more words. Definitely a couple of more periods.

You´re onto something here.

Start breaking down books nobody ever touches anymore. Aint nobody got time to read 10000 pages anymore.

I wanna show off my immense intellectual superiority to my friends ! Let us leech of your talent!

I'm going to have to start a Utopian project that accepts donations for that level of service providing.

Because if I have to wade through the "classics" of worldwide literature to turn them into Tweet-able soundbites, I want to get paid.

Thank you for being the Protagonist, like I stated, half the SBD's on this post will go (Transparency Post will be done on this ;) ).....
You did a fabulous job in helping TeamGood <3

Please, we all know I'm the antagonist of any story I appear in, providing the necessary plot-energy to drive the reader and the protagonist re-actively to actually engage with and change the world.

It's fine. The villain's always the one with the big ideas and creative drive. That's why someone typically steps up to stop them.

Or try, anyway.

Don't break your wittle arm patting yourself on the back, "Lex"
O.o

are you going to spend all day on this post, go for it, wish I had that kind of freetime :)

you may want to know full stories before you start sticking up for the next phases of this , I sure as hell woud not be defending some of what some this stuff is connected to,but go ahead, you're a Mensa level so are a LOT on here.... :) if you continue to write essays all day you get a prize for participation here on......steemit

Wait a minute. Are you suggesting that spending time communicating with other people about an issue you care about is wasting time?

Physician, heal thyself.

I want to be clear, I'm not defending anyone. I'm simply pointing out that your reasoning is crap and you should probably be a little embarrassed by it. The goal you've set in the means by which you are implicitly pursuing it is ultimately going to be self-destructive, and you should know that.

I'm simply saying that you should be honest about what you want and what you mean. I really don't care how much other people are pulling out of the system because I recognize that it is inherently slanted, from day zero, the white paper, to reinforce self-reflective efforts to generate higher hit rates from the reward pool. That is to say, self voting and clade voting are designed into the system to be extremely rewarding, the more so as you gain more SP for leverage.

Acting outraged about that is ignorant.

If the defense of your position is "well, you probably shouldn't bother trying to communicate with me," you should at least be honest about that. If the worst and most scurrilous slander you can provide is, "you're too smart and using too many words," I'm probably just going to cop to that and wonder, publicly, why you bother being here at all.

You can't defend yourself based on the arguments you presupposed. Or won't. You can't defend yourself based on critique of your philosophy. Or won't. And you won't actually engage in discussion.

What is it you're doing, then? Is it just making a post so that rah-rah people can dump their up votes on it so that you can take some money out of the pool? Isn't that exactly what you're criticizing?

I don't mind hypocrisy just so long as we're honest and upfront about it.

Dood, it's a call to action for "those in the know" and apparently you are not. More to come, U should grab your cereal bowl, and sit on the sidelines.
@lextenebris AS these replies (lines) get a bit convoluted

I apologize profusely for using ideas which are too complex and sentences which are too fraught for you to make your way through. I will endeavor to use smaller words and less complicated ideas going forward.

A call to action for "those in the know." That's hilarious! Good one!

Actually, you misunderstood me. I edited my reply above for more clarity.
I added your @lex... to show it was for you, and in my brevity triggered your
"superiority complex", apparently ;)

The WP also speaks about sweat equity. I think there is a considerable amount of tension between the two concepts. They tend to stand at odds with one another. One person's habitual self voting can serve to undermine the sweat equity generated by another as I understand the terms to me. It would have been good if the devs went into greater detail.
