Hi Lexicographer
Thanks for your gesture. I think we need people (who can see the Emperor has no clothes on) to talk about it. And we need you to be visible. I know my votes aren't worth much but it's important to promote people like you so that others can see what you're saying too.

PS THANK YOU BILLIONS for that link. I laughed my arse off. Gonna follow bouboug ahahahahah

I believe re-steeming might be a good strategy to spread ideas without exposing oneself to damage by unkind people. A possible downvote will not hurt the one who only re-steems.

Ah, now that's a good idea. I've resteemed a couple of things since I've been here. There was a post I read recently -- https://steemit.com/steemit/@spiritualmax/steemit-following-tips-how-to-increase-your-follower-retention-rates

Spiritualmax warns against being too trigger-happy with the resteem button. If it's overdone, it can turn off your viewers, having the opposite effect. I know I've unfollowed a couple of people because my feed is literally clogged with stuff they've resteemed, stuff that doesn't interest me.

It's a tough one. Fine balance needed.
