RE: What the fuck do witnesses do?

@themarkymark inspired me to meme.

I remember back in the day when @fyrstikken would bash whole witness circle jerk. As I see it, witnesses, have the job of securing the block chain ie: producing block, keeping it running and also promoting it. But where are we on the promotion part? The way I see it. We have a bunch of gatekeepers scaring people from joining and making the platform thrive. And no one is stopping them. Shouldn't the witnesses do something about that? Or is all they care about is just running a node and making money? This place could of been a real rival to some of the big social media websites. But as it turns out, shit always runs downhill. Our problems start at the top and just get worse. Do better.
