RE: $200 Monthly Investing Plan Brought to You by Hive Blockchain
Yep, no one on Hive is what I'd call a "good writer" even despite them wanting to believe they are; but there's some good people who write.

I think it goes beyond being a good writer or a good person. People are either good at expressing themselves, or not. People are either good at engaging in discussion and discourse, or they're not.
The underlying issue is that we have a lot of people on all of those spectrums with all sorts of ... dare I say ... confidence or aggrandising qualities which clash with their desire to express themselves or to confidently take a different view from another.
At times, I feel that there are certainly cargo cults on hive, waiting for the "Aid drop" (the upvote), circling those with large stake in order to nab a piece of the pie for themselves.
Strategic, ulterior, unwritten motives - but easy enough to see through. It is non genuine engagement, and I see you get a ton of it.
At the same time, people are too afraid to step on someone else's toes. If you disagree with something someone says, that's okay. Just do it with respect and decorum, but without it being said, no one knows what needs to change.
Having said that - change (and what direction that change takes us in) - is not commonly the outcome of a single actor. We collectively shift our views as our society changes those views. Or, we resist. I just want to see capital q quality like we see capital a art. I am also happy with seeing memes and discussing the banal and absurd.
I just want hive, and all of its genuine users and enthusiasts to succeed, and its my view that just one way we can get on the "map" is through having quality that is irrefutable.
As you say, (and I'm paraphrasing) you have to make your own destiny.
I want our shared destinies to be some sort of utopian HIVE land where no matter what we do, we are brilliant at it.
