When Facebook launched back in 2004, few people understood the magnitude of what was really going on. A company that would go on to shape our society and culture as a whole, was born.
Fast forward to 2018 and the world is a very different place. Fake news, and censorship seem to have become a commonplace thing in todays world. In the past, the internet was about liberation, and freedom. It was about not having to worry that somebody would shut you up, simply because they didn't like, or agree with what you had to say. Our constitution calls it "Freedom of Speech", or something like that.
But these social media companies have become way to big, and way to powerful. Facebook, YouTube, Twitter, etc. have all been exposed as organizations that will SELL YOUR INFORMATION TO 3RD PARTIES and censor any and all content that they deem "offensive" or "political". Since when can we not talk about politics? Well, if you notice, the only time any content creators ever face any real issue is when they go against the ones who control the media as a whole...the Left.
The Left, Liberals, Democrats, dirt bags, whatever you want to call them, are ALMOST 100% of the American Mainstream Media. Where is the evidence? Well, its pretty obvious frankly. Remember the 2016 election. Remember all the polls that had Crooked Hillary beating President Trump by a LANDSLIDE? All propaganda to try to sway votes using "mob mentality" (if everybody else is, I guess I will to). CNN (Clinton News Network), ABC (All 'Bout Clintons), NBC (Nothin' But Clintons), CNBC (Clinton News Because we Can), CBS (Clinton Bull Shit) were ALL reporting on MASSIVE leads by Crooked Hillary.
Well, clearly it didn't work and President Trump overcame Crooked Hillary quite easily, winning the majority of electoral votes. (Don't even present the popular vote argument. If you don't understand electoral college....look at New York and California, (both blue states, with highest populations) case closed)
Steemit is here to change all of this. No longer will 1 entity, be it a person, organization, etc., be able to control the platform, and content within it. This is truly groundbreaking. Decentralized EVERYTHING is the way to go. This is just the beginning. I believe Steemit will lead the way to the DECREV or Decentralized Revolution. We MUST take back power from these centralized organizations, who frankly became way too powerful, way too dangerous.
