RE: I'm Trying to Support Hive but Whales are Downvoting Me

in #hive4 years ago

P.S. -

This may seem "hateful" to you, but it's just brutal honesty.
Most people around you in your life aren't going to talk shit straight with you, because they either:
A) Want to fuck you since you're pretty cute.
B) Don't want to cross you because you're a potential networking connection. (Even if the quality of knowing you in the crypto space is debatable across parties.)
C) You're female and for some reason people think that equality doesn't also need to apply to how you talk to and treat people.

My perspective: Glad you (didn't) ask. ;)
You can cry wolf, but if people don't see value somewhere, they just don't and you can't change that.
(I'm not going to talk sweetly to you while you play the "victim" card as a rebuttal to people calling you out on things, because you're a bit biologically different than me. Sorry, not sorry. I'm going to treat you as I'd treat a man, on all fronts. [Unless we were to ever (no.) be intimate (no.) with one another (another no.), then (in a hypothetical and never-to-exist situation.) I'd treat you as something other than a man, but only because nature designed me to be this primal, carnal, insatiable being and I'm attracted to women.] It's as simple as that. I'm not going to (ever) sit here and hold my tongue or change my dialogue to cater to every single different fuck's wants that I meet on here. I'm not going to dumb down or pussy up my dialogue either, because other people might get hurt by imaginary words.

D) They will just ignore you instead of confront you. People sometimes tend to just look the other way when they see things they don't agree with or support, sadly. That is why the world has so much injustice. They should confront you when you're in a public social media space and tell you they think your shit sucks, if that's what they think. That's their right. You shouldn't let that shit get to you tho, cuz then it's on you. There's not going to be much shift in that tho, because people who don't like you and want to make sure you know it, will find a way to express that no matter the platform. You can run if you'd like, but you're more likely to do well here than anywhere else, even with haters. At least here, you have a community to reach out to instead of one shittily-maintained-and-run website/app's "support team" which is generally an email account that you get automated responses from and rarely hear back from, due to the amount of reports that come in daily across the network.

I'm sure I could think of a few more reasons why people won't be straight up with u and say shit to your face, but it is what it is and I'm tired of wasting time typing about this. Stop playing a victim tho, cuz anyone with any respect for themselves, or you, is not going to go for that childish shit. People say hurtful shit to me daily, but who the fuck are they anyway? If you've got haters it means you're doing something right even if you're doing something wrong so take it for what it is that your energy, your existence, had enough reach to make people actually spend time and energy of their own, bashing you. That's why people say "haters are your biggest fans" cuz just think about how much time and fucking energy people put into having to hate shit and then think about how much that means they care. LOL. You don't have to be weak and it's not "in our nature" to just be one way or another. It's a conscious decision moment to moment to either let people's words affect you deeply or to not. If you let them, then you are the one losing and they are the one's winning. You stop being weak and playing the victim, guess what, assholes tend to stop fucking with you. It's your reaction that they're able to illicit that makes them continue on with you. If you give it no mind, no energy, then it goes away. As far as perception of value goes, if you care about your earnings which you clearly do, engage more in a real, human way. Just be fucking genuine. Stop with all the "If you wanna support me do this or that!" bullshit shtick. Search for posts from other people pertaining to topics you enjoy/like or write about your own experiences. Most of what you post is just random babbling about what you're going to do or this or that or a fucking selfie like that means much, like I can't just go on instagram and stare at bitches all day or something... it's just shallow and vain. That's why you're probably getting shit, because your content is what for so long has continued to just earn and earn and earn and it's essentially shitposting for promotional reasons, so that people see a cute face and ref links and fuck around and make you money. It's obvious is the worst part, so how about you connect with the community as you would in the real world. Would you walk the fuck up to me and hand me 20 different business cards with different graphics and ref links on them and talk to me for 10 mins about yourself, only to not even bother to hear my response or put any thought or feedback into the things I say? To me, it just comes off as self-absorbed and for monetary gain and if it's not like that, as you've stated now, then don't just fucking leave cuz that just makes us think we were right about you.... instead, engage more, give your opinions, feedback, express yourself, your views, your beliefs, your interests, and do all that in-depth. Don't just give us a paragraph or a few lines about some basic shit. Let us know what goes on in your mind when you contemplate any number of things.

I think what's lost on most people is that social media is supposed to be a way for us to socialize with one another as if we were face to face and since we are not face to face, we act differently and we put on masks and faces and pretend to be what seems to appeal to the most people when it comes to our image. Break that shit, stop going with the mould. The meta is fucked. lol. Be human again. Ask questions about people's lives, engage them, show them someone gives a fuck to hear the story that is their life... It's a whole different experience that way. :)
