RE: Steemit Just Got Discussed on National Radio for Several Minutes

in #steemit8 years ago

This is the nature of humans. They saw you made 15.000 $ on a post, and you where only introduceing yourself. Most of them have no idea why. They dont understand that you made this money becouse you can help promoting STEEMIT in manny ways. They dont understand that you made this money becouse STEEIMIT users appreciates you for your work. I recomand you to ignore them. If you made that money it means you are appreciated for what you do and for who you are. And remeber guys, you must have braind to make easy money. Not everyone can do this.

Sort:  

They also don't understand this new paradigm. They don't understand that money was not taken out of their pockets, or their taxes forcefully paid. They don't fully understand that everyone that does well goes up in power and now has a chance to result in the people they vote on making more money too.

They cling to envy (though they will not acknowledge it... it is someone else's fault) and try to compare this new paradigm to things from the past. There has never been anything like this.

There is also a fair amount of cognitive dissonance at play.

Good point !
