RE: Day #73 here on the Hive in the I Am alive Challenge and it is all about YOU and ME!

Meanwhile those who are supposed to lead the country are more involved with elections than anything else. Truly absurd, this world we live in. Thank goodness for the positive vibes on Hive.

Sort:  

Yes so true unfortunately. Where in the world are you Rarej?

And even worse is that they are terrible leaders- which is why they have to put so much focus on their elections, to try to convince people that they can do the job.

But if they really wanted to do such a good job, they've had plenty of years in the lead up to becoming the leader to practice, so I say too little, way too late.

In almost every country in the world at the moment, the citizens are revolting against their leaders and yes, many of them are protesting simply just because of the corona lockdowns, but then are those protesting against the cheating way that their leaders- their dictators, were able to stay in power.

Imagine being in Minsk in Belarus right now and watching your dictator cheat his way back into the presidency. I mean we already saw that in the USA a few years back with Bush and we're just about to witness it with trump...and so many others have witnessed it their nations too, which has bought about nothing but war, death, poverty, illness and the list goes on...😡

I understand your frustrations @chocolatescorpi. I am in Suriname, South-America, which has corruption on a third-world level. So I know all about terrible leaders, unfortunately.

Some political leaders usually have the skills theoretically, but choose to do bad instead because of their own thirst for money and power. And that's part of the problem.

What also helps these "dictators" is that they somehow manage to create a following of brainwashed mindless zombies. Usually the same people that suffer the most from their wrong-doings. Can't help but just laugh about it sometimes.

Oh so you guys in Suriname have dodgy peeps too in the govt?

Well actually I think that's a silly question of mine because where there is power and where there is human beings, there will be dodginess too...☹️

They're almost exclusively dodgy. Although, some of the younger generation delegates seem to have good intentions (for now).

Most centralized systems have that problem. This is where decentralized technologies like blockchain come in, cutting out the power-hungry dodgy middleman. :)

Yes, I'm just learning that.

I had never actually heard of the term decentralisation until just 80 days ago when I completely stumbled across hive by watching some premier pro tutorials on Youtube...

and it was like a chain reaction, from one to the other, to the next and so on and so forth until 5 days later, after must research I was in.

See I didn't have a friend that introduced me to it and none of my friends have every heard of it, but they are all over social media...

Ah yes, the dreaded information spiral. But good that you found it. Now you can introduce your friends to a more positive and less controlled social media. :)

Yes, as soon as I understand it better myself I intend to as they and the Hive will greatly benefit from each other.

See you tomorrow night on the #Live #hiveChat on Twitter???
