You are correct when you say i am RESHARING, but you are wrong when you say i am resharing other people's content. Facts are not anybody's content.
Suppose i reshare a fact that Earth is round (some people disagree with it but still) or Earth has one moon or Saturn has 82 moons or an egg shell is white or it is impossible to lick your elbows, do i have to reference the source for each one of them?. They are FACTS. if i am resharing them i am not stealing anybody's content.
One new thing that has come to my knowledge through your comment is that esteem isn't for resharing. Facebook and twitter are. Nobody told me this when i signed up for steemit anywhere.
How is it not anybody's content? Did Facts just fall out of the sky? Some human was responsible for testing a theory and creating said fact and publishing it. Even if you can't find the original source you could still reference is based on a journal or publication you found it on.
Well you not knowing something isn't a cause for no repercussions, if you didn't know to put your hand in a meat grinder is going to shred it to pieces are you going to be upset at the manufacturer for not telling you? This is the decentralised web, it's up to the individual to educate themselves, there's no hand-holding here.
While you have a point, there are certain things that we can't necessarily reference. Like saying Penis is for peeing, even though there might be proof, it is irrelevant to write who came up with first because most guys will accept that they pee through their penis.
However, I also avoid making general statements by saying"my penis is for peeing", which in effect patents the said fact to my own life snd therefore cannot be said to be plagiarised anymore.
Thirdly, I used penis reference because, well, fuck it. I felt like. Use a Penis reference please.
I totallly get what you’re saying i mean im not going to reference everything i say on a text or facebook but those contributions arent meant to he rewareded its open discussions! If im just to grab a bunch of shit and slap it on a post and think i should be rewarded for it i think thats quite entitled
Also facts arent always facts their are planty of fallacys that are socially acceptable and we treat it as fact and yet we are spreading misinformation and claiming its fact
Yes and everything is correct except one thing...
You didnt make ANY PENIS REFERENCE 😑
LOL we africans dont like to talk about our dicks, we let our dicks do the talking
Ooooh snap!!!!! Steemcleaners aint got nothing on you 😆. You jjst renewed my hope in my Africanness
LOL! Keep it real my Naija, I wont even hold it against you that you guys knocked us out of the AFCON
Enlighten yourself. Are facts copyrighted?
You are simply missing my main point that what i post are facts and facts are nobody's content.
This is a decentralized web but it is controlled by goons, thugs and fascists like @steemcleaner & @steemcleaners
Facts didn't fall out of the sky. They have been around us since the creation of the universe and new facts being created daily. Like the year changed to 2020 twenty six days ago. A lot people have died and a lot of new ones have born since me having conversation with you. No one owns the right to these facts.
Lol the year 2020 isnt even a fact its a fallacy
Ok
