Dear @tristancarx,
@f3nix writing here. I am very proud that you are part of our community of writers, the Bananafish. Your words remind me of all the values we stand for and are also a great source of inspiration (being you the official community inspirer we couldn't expect anything different!). I might write lot of things but I want to say that we are way bigger than this Steemit, we are humans with projects and passion and flesh and blood and what we have here is just a tool to express ourselves, not more not less. Let's not let a simple medium to take our humanity, our true selves, away for the sake of another shitty hierarchic and pyramidal order. We have enough of them in real life. What did @josephsavage create? A way to express solidarity and a hope of growth even for those that don't own to a golden whale's circlejerk. The Bananafish used and uses the @steembasicincome for a little of self-funding. So far, during all the account's existence, we just distributed upvotes and rewards between writers, thanks to our many contests. We created loads of good content with our fiction stories and poetry. Are we abusing of the platform? I don't think so. Yet, there's this self proclaimed hero that believes we need a flag. Go on, we don't give a shit because you know what? A story, a poetry, any expression of art and humanity lives beyond your little thinking and also beyond this simple box called Steemit. Bravo, Tristan. It's a great lesson of freedom for all of us what you did today. Looking at our wallet, we are broke at the Bananafish. Do we care? Not really, we're not greedy bastards like others. We'll find a way like we always did with the help of many to let the creativity flow once more and who cares about these flags. Hope you like my drawing.. always forward together and hoist the Bananafish colors high! (And now fuckit I'm also voting myself because every cent is precious for us and for the peeps to whom we will distribute them).
