An American sings to Russians !
Watch the video here ! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9cjTKOn4DwA
*Oh, this time I recorded a great reaction from two Americans to a Russian couple, me and my wife* *@cherilay* *!* https://blurt.blog/@cherilay
The first one I put in the beginning of the video asked us a very interesting question. He said : ''Aren't we sworn enemies ? I don't know !''.
We didn't expect that. That was a surprise, but I guess I understand why is that happening. Just two nations are turned against each other. But I'm glad some are not buying it. Of course, we told him ''NO''. We're not enemies. At least from what I know, citizens don't hate other citizens, unless a third party is turning them against each other. Regular people mostly hate only when it touches them personally. And many things are turning now personal, but we could all stop that and work together on not letting them divide us.

The second guy sang for us a few songs. We loved that. And one of the song of course was so familiar to us. Many Russian people listen to the English music. And after the Soviet Union fall, most Russians grow up watching American movies, we were kind of absorbing the American culture even. And a lot of Russians have a tradition to watch movies in the weekends. And you can find the numbers yourself, and you will see how many American movies we shown in Russian cinema all this time. Anyway, while listening to the guy, I thought about all that. I couldn't just enjoy the songs. The pain I have inside is unimaginable.
*Anyway, I will keep doing what I was doing all the time. And that's uniting people. Using* *@dcooperation**, DCC token,* *@blurtcast**, and many other tools to do that.* https://blurt.blog/@dcooperation https://blurt.blog/@blurtcast
**Youtube is also a great tool, and you can't imagine how many things we can do there to make the world a better place !**

Discussing Russians with a Turkish guy !
https://youtu.be/sS48If1z9JQ
*In this video I showed how I discussed Russians with a guy from Turkey.*
It's really fun to know what people think about others. I'm running a cool channel on youtube and in fact it's an experiment. From one side I like to talk to Random people in chatroulette.com, and from the other side I'm trying to build a new youtube channel where I will only show the reaction of people when they see someone from Russia. Here is the channel if you want to subscribe: Russian Reaction. https://chatroulette.com/ https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCCGMqdmr18SMfaNyrd53OOg
*It's also a good English practice for me. I sometimes meet there native speakers to practice with them. I see that my English still needs to be improved.*
In the video the guy told me about what he really thinks about Russian people. Especially Russian girls, because usually a lot of people from Russia travel to Turkey.
*Interesting also to see most people there have an idea about Russian people.*
**Most of them met them, like I feel everyone has some Russian friend or someone Russian he/she knows. lol**

If you don't know the history, you know nothing !
https://youtu.be/YjyKMX0lr4g
*It's a great video from a guy from my city Rostov on Don where I already live more than 7 years.*
In fact my Russian origin is from a town in this region that's called Novocherkassk. It's a little town, 20 km away from Rostov. When my mother was born, where I spent four years of my childhood, where I've got my second and third high education.
Maybe I didn't live that long as the guy did, but I also witnessed many things he's talking about in the video. He's 45, I'm 37, so that's not a big difference. By the way the guy lived in the US for years and then left it to Russia. He even considered Russia better than the US for reasons he talked about in another video. You can check that here :
https://youtu.be/z05-9OiFpIM
So, in the first video he talked about the history of Russia. From being a Soviet Union where so many things were under control, and people weren't allowed to do things you may see them impossible to not do in a country. Like a creating business for example. So, the only production was from the government, imagine that. And people could only be workers somewhere. I don't even know how it's possible to live that way. Anyway, I was born in that time, so I don't remember anything of that. I was too small to understand what's going on. But still I'm sure that some people could figure out how to avoid the government and do their things by their own. That wasn't that easy, but people were doing that for sure. Even in the 70s when my father traveled from Algeria to the Soviet Union, and being a student, he could buy clothes from Italy and French and sell them here. Maybe he was hiding, but that how he met my mother. That how he was so cool, because he was doing very well. That proves that people can always find solutions no matter how strict their government is.
Anyway, we all know that the Soviet Union crushed. And that happened in 1991. And the guy talked about that in the video as well. I wasn't living here, I was living in Algeria and only by 1994 we travelled with all our family to Russia. It was a new country born. Totally different from the Soviet Union. People finally could create their businesses. People could finally make money, travel, buy what ever they want. Speak out what ever they want. They start tasting a bit of freedom. Not a complete one, but it was better than the Soviet Union for sure. But in the other hand, the government decided to not care about people at all. So, as he told in the video, many mafia groups were formed here. And they were the law here. Not the police, because they themselves were afraid of the mafia guys with weapons. So with some freedom people lost a lot of security. Even me I have some experience with that. In 1998 my father took me back to Algeria, and he left my mother with my sisters in Russia. My mother had to work, and she always remembers how people with black jackets were visiting here and telling her that they know how to find my sisters. They were asking from her to pay them for security. And they knew where she was working, and they are taking from her money each month. I don't remember the amount, but they were doing that to every family. Everyone who has a work, especially for independent people. That's the time of 90s. That's how Russia was born and that's what Russian people had to go through.
Then as he said, the golden years of Russia came. Where the police start controlling those groups. They get rid of them. And people started legalizing their business. And in that time people felt even more freedom. People were making a lot of money. Improving their lifestyle. Consuming you can say. Breathing a fresh air. Of the new Russia. And in that time I travelled from Algeria to Russia. I studied here, I met so many people from so many countries. And even created my English club here, and met an American guy here. Here is what was done in my club :
https://youtu.be/PMgeHQ5ZYuM
Anyway, that how I found my wife. That's how I got married here, and that helped me to get the citizenship. That helped me find a better work here. To live better. And to feel myself finally a citizen instead of an immigrant. I finally thought that I will be building my life, create a business, and be a successful person. But some things happened, and I couldn't make it. But I preferred to go fully in crypto and that's another story.
Anyway, before the recent events Russia were evolving. Creating relationships with other countries. Turning from a close Union to an open country for opportunities. But things changed. And it's like we're living in a new country again. Maybe it's the case for all countries, but I don't know. I can talk about the country I was living and still living all the time.
*The guy in the video even said that there is no Russia anymore.*
**I still see a country here, and maybe he's exaggerating, but I would say he's right about so many things.**
It's always better to see it from the perspective of someone who's living in the country.
I will keep updating you about what's going on here !
A Russian guy from my city talking about the situation in Russia !
https://youtu.be/kex7hYd6aLc
*I'm glad to find this guy from my city, I will try to meet him, or contact him to invite him here.*
But since I didn't find any contacts of him, I'll be sharing his videos sometimes.
He's talking in the video about how the events we have recently affected us as simple citizens and how it could affect us even more in the future.
Of course, it's not that a big deal for me who is not travelling a lot, who has no car, or no big expenses. But for some people who used to live that high lifestyle, they could be affected by a lot of things.
*Anyway, I wish for a better future, but I just don't see it here.*
**I have to stay here for personal reasons. But at least I'll be able to share what's going on here.**
1 year of DCC token !
*DCC token now exists more than a year.*
I'm glad we reached such a milestone. Here is what I wrote when the token was just created : DCcoin is created ! The total is 1 million !. https://hive.blog/hive-177976/@clixmoney/dccoin-is-created-the-total-is-1-million
And I especially wrote the following :
I'll issue the other 100k tokens only if all those plans will be already in work.
So, today I decided to issue another 100k tokens and to distribute DCC among all the holders. So, anyone holding any amount will just get that doubled. I don't know how that will affect the price, but that's how I want to reward those who are holding the token for more than a year. Of course, I'll add to that those 36% APR. I already distributed a part here : 9% in 3 months to DCC holders and I will be adding to that again 9% for top DCC holders. https://hive.blog/hive-177976/@clixmoney/9-in-3-months-to-dcc-holders-or-36-apr
*So, in case you want your tokens to be doubled, you can buy some DCC now.*
**I already issued another 100k, and I'll be distributing it soon !**
Let's call this DCC halving. 😉

Labeling = Division !
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EnE2-dD1VW4
*In this video I talked about labeling people !*
In my opinion labeling = division !
I talked in the video about labeling people during the history.
About countries, I lived and live in. And how people were and are labeled there.
About the consequences of labeling people. And how could that create division.
*It was like a confession for me, because I never talked about a particular aspect about the country I lived in before.*
**I'm glad I finally mentioned that, because it's so important for me !**
Awakening types !
*During my awakening journey, I've seen so many types of content creators who try to spread the information about things they learned about the world, and especially about the leading part of humanity.*
Anyway, no matter how much information we consume and from whom, the most important is to do our own researches and to form our own opinion about things based on our experience.
**Panic :**
sudden uncontrollable fear or anxiety, often causing wildly unthinking behavior.
That's maybe the most popular type of awakening. When those who try to spread the information, start creating fear and uncertainty in people. Maybe they could really be honest about what they are doing. Maybe they spread a lot of truth about what's going on. Maybe they support freedom. But the way they do it, it can just create a mass psychosis among people. Because some people aren't yet ready to accept such information. Especially when we have such tools as youtube where the information couldn't be given in order. But we may find it randomly. And not all people are ready to accept it. Especially when there are so many theories around.
Maybe the example I can give of this is : Alex Jones. Of course many things about him could be said. But it's clear what side he's taking and all people who do like him. And of course we should always notice in the end of his videos, him promoting some products. So maybe the incentive to create such content is to sell the product. That's why I prefer to consume less panicking content about the situation. It's nice when I hear from someone who speaks quietly. That's my preference as a non-native speaker. That makes me understand better. I don't know about how Americans and others feel about it, but they seem loving him. I usually come to such conclusion because of the comments under a video about him from CNN.. Despite CNN talking about him as an evil guy, many people in the comments kept defending him. So, it seems that he has a big community around him. But anyway, it's not my type of content to consume a lot. Maybe sometimes it's ok. https://odysee.com/@AlexJonesChannel:c https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ij80ADxZVYM
**Profit :**
Of course any content creator would like to earn from his/her hard work. But sometimes I feel that some do their best to profit from the situation. I don't want to discredit anyone I know doing so. But if I'll take an example of The Dollar Vigilante who I like so much by the way. I see him also in the end of his video promoting the subscription on his website, and sometimes even selling real estate. So, I don't know his real incentive because I can't read minds. But from the way he's presenting things, I don't see that much panic spread. Mostly opinions about what's going on. And I like the funny form he uses, to do that. https://odysee.com/@DollarVigilante:b
In this situation, I would like just to try to categorize the types of content creators who spread awakening. In my opinion it's good if the content creator does that for a noble goal, but not only to profit from that. But if that's his/her main income, so he/she can do some promotion to keep his content on. After all, such people do a lot of researches, present a lot of facts and arguments. So, they may deserve a big reward no matter how big is that. The only thing I hope that their product will satisfy the clients. After all we can always read reviews from trustpilot.com and decide if supporting such author is ok or not. Because when I see negative reviews, I have some doubts. So, I don't even know if those reviews are for real, or just from people trying to discredit the guy. It's up to you to decide. https://www.trustpilot.com/review/www.dollarvigilante.com
**Donation :**
Maybe this type of awakening content is the most trustworthy. I don't know. I mean that there are many of such content creators who mostly only ask for donations. So, they are not selling any product, any subscriptions or anything else. They may promote a crypto they like, and for me that's more than ok. Because I feel that awakening is so related to crypto. And most people who are involved in crypto have the chance to accept a lot of modern information no matter how it's presented. After all crypto could be anonymous and that could protect the author from any false accusations. Of course, it depends on the crypto they got and wallet addresses they promote.
For example someone like World Alternative Media who talks about many important things. He's on hive by the way as @joshsigurdson. And he promotes hive in his videos. So, seeing him promoting the blockchain I'm active in and many people are active in is really good. Maybe he's selling some clothes or something light, but I don't see him promoting that, that much in his videos. I've just seen a link leading me to his products in the description of his video. After all, such content creator could be trustworthy. It's again just not my type, maybe because he's kind of acting like a reporter from the news, what make me a bit cautious. But generally, I like such content creators who explain things quietly, without any FUD or panic. https://www.bitchute.com/channel/gzFCj8AuSWgp/ https://blurt.blog/@joshsigurdson
**Rudeness :**
This type I would say is not for everyone. Mostly I see content creators who practice that, are not promoting anything, or selling products. It's just their way to do things. Maybe they have big following who like them. Maybe that could help some people to see some truth. Maybe it's the way to go for some people. Usually such content creator make fun of those who are not aware yet about many things. Or those who are closing their eyes for a reason or another. Sometimes I even find that funny. And I may sometimes laugh, but I just prefer to be softer on people. Because I know that people can change. They can learn it in another way. Of course with what's going on, maybe some rudeness should be allowed to awake some type of people. And that could push them to open their eyes. But everyone has his own ways of doing things.
I just wish from those who like to be rude with others, or make fun of them, to understand that no all people are the same. Their culture can play with them the opposite game. When their education or the lifestyle may not allow them to accept things in a rude manner. Going a bit softer at least sometimes could be a solution. But after all in this journey, I see a balance needed. Sometimes we just have to have some sense of humor to not lose our minds at all. Because the way how truth seekers are attacked by the narrative is also hard on them. So, we may have to excuse some people for being that tough on others. After all, it's maybe their lifestyle. And I'm not trying to protect them, but just giving a chance to everyone to express him/her selves the way they can. But as I said, I wish them being a bit softer, because not all people are the same. Because sometimes rudeness can push away people instead of making them join a side.
*After all, we have to always consider that everyone has his/her own style of spreading information.*
**The positive thing is that the goal of all those, is mostly noble !**

Forked Forking Fork !
*So, I wrote ''open source'' to find a picture on the web, I've got this initial picture :*
In the paint I added all those lines, one of them are thick, others are tiny, and there are those who are in the middle. And sometimes from a little issue we can fix a huge problem, and that's what's represented in the thick line that's on a tiny one.
**Anyway, I would like to talk about ''open source'' and why I like it so much !**
So, the idea of open source in fact is one of the best ever formed in the history. Because usually people created only things that they take control off, and now it's possible to create projects where anyone can be involved. And it doesn't matter what work you have. You look at the project, come up with an idea and write about it. It could be accepted, or refused, but still will be discussed, and that could be even implemented if it's liked.
That's why I heard really powerful investors talking about why they invest in open source projects. They understand that's the future is after them. Where anyone from all around the world can be involved in the improvement and even the development.
**Let me give you an example about blurt :**
Blurt is an open source project. You can see that here !. And anyone, I confirm, anyone can register on gitlab.com and create an issue there. The issue means the problem you have with the blockchain, and the things you like to be improved or changed. https://gitlab.com/blurt
*For example, I've created this issue recently :* *Improving trending page* *:* https://gitlab.com/blurt/blurt/-/issues/176
I've been on graphene blockchain so long, and I wouldn't like to see the stake impacting the public opinion that much. That's why I prefer to see most discussed topics in trending, but not the most upvoted ones. How often we create great posts, and many people discuss them and in the end no one will be able to know what's the most discussed in a social media. And it turns a trending page full of posts without any comments or only a few, and that can also impact the opinion of an investor. It gives the wrong impression about the platform, so they think that's an empty platform with non activity on it, while we have very active community. But that's unseen because of the trending page that's based only on the value of the upvotes it's got. Maybe this is somehow against the principle of proof of stake, but that's how I see it. We should also care about other concepts in the blockchain.
As you see, I see a problem in that, and I would like to see that changed. That could be accepted and changed, or not be accepted. It's up to the community. And in fact here where you see the community who understand what's an open source. That's what professionals do.
*If anyone tells that the community is here to decide, that means that the community should care. Should create issues, should participate in the development. Caring in terms of words is not enough, we need actions.*
*So, let's move our discussion to the open source level. Where not only content creators and developers in blurt could see the issue, but also developers from all around the world ! That what will bring better solutions to any issue we have here !*
**Let's use all the opportunities we have !**
Politicis and Culture !
*I wrote many times about politics, but never thought that could affect a culture.*
As I always write, I'm learning. And this time I learned something new. Just like that could happen with rewritten books, that can happen with updating websites and finding the right moderators who accept or refuse the information based on the political side the website takes.
Of course, I know that in a war, the propaganda will be from both sides. But still there are things reasonable to do, and things I'll never agree with. For example rewriting the history, or censoring what's true. And I don't mean the truth we're not sure about, but that truth that impossible to distort.
**Let me give you a clear example of that :**
We all know that there is a war between Ukraine and Russia. And the war is not only on the ground, but also a very powerful informative war. And the informative one maybe even more powerful, especially when we look at it in form of the language, and maybe even the culture. And knowing both languages Russian and English, I would say that what's presented in Russian, is not at all what's presented in English. The same about other languages, because I know Arabic as well, and I've seen how most Arabic people took the Russian side before, and now they are kind of shifting the side. And who knows what other countries prefer to support. I didn't check that.
*Anyway, as usually, I do my best to not take any sides and think that's a big game of politicians to distract the world.*
**Cultural example :**
So, recently my wife @cherilay shared a simple recipe of a Russian food. At least me, living in Russia for more than 12 years, I thought that the dish is Russian. That's called ''Borscht''. And one girl from Ukraine told her in the comments, that the dish is Ukrainian. While it was clear that my wife wrote the following : ''*Every family in Russia (and also probably in Ukraine and Belarus)*''. So, she knew that the dish is also probably also prepared in Ukraine and Belarus. Because she never visited those countries, and she wasn't sure about that, just like me and most Russians here. Maybe the older generation know that the dish is Slavic. https://blurt.blog/@cherilay
So, I did the following. I went to google and wrote the word ''Borscht'' to check. Of course, we all know Wikipedia, but is that a trustful website ? I don't think so, because when my wife was looking for some information about veganism, she found there a lot of misinformation, and she even had to edit some articles and moderators were so strict with her. But she found the right resources, and they edited there based on those resources. But that was a few years ago, I don't think they will listen now anyway. And what I can change anyway with non-open source project. I always wondered, how Wikipedia earns from the website if they have no ads on it. I understand now !
So, they write the following about ''Borscht'' :
In English, the word "borscht" is most often associated with the soup's variant of Ukrainian origin.
I was surprised seeing that. The first thing I thought about. Oh, my god this dish is Ukrainian, I didn't know about that, but having a critical thinking, and knowing the Wikipedia could put wrong information there, I thought, but I need to check other resources. And of course I found the total opposite here : Borsch: The Slavic Signature Soup : https://folkways.today/borsch-slavic-beet-soup/
The name “borsch” is an East Slavic term and derives from the proto-Slavic name for hogweed. That vegetable’s pickled stems, leaves, and umbels (flowering canopies) were the soup’s original key ingredient.
And I trust that more. Because I know that most Slavic countries, have similar language, so they may have similar culture as well. And “borsch” is more likely known in all Slavic countries. So, I learned that “borsch” is not Russian but Slavic. And this information look less nationalist for me.
**Another example :**
Recently I shared the following post : Some monuments in my city !. And one of those monuments I shared was a monument of a Cossack. So, I wanted to let people know what is Cossack. So, I tried to share some information about that. And as usual the first website that pop up in the search engine was Wikipedia. And I was surprised again by seeing that Cossacks are Ukrainians, while I was thinking all the time that they are Russian. Anyway here is what Wikipedia shared : https://hive.blog/hive-163772/@clixmoney/some-monuments-in-my-city
The Cossacks[a] are a predominantly East Slavic Orthodox Christian (but originally Turkic) people group originating in the steppes of Ukraine.
And of course to be sure about that, I looked in other resources and if you remember when we didn't even have the internet, most of us installed encyclopedia ''Britannica'' on their pcs. So, I found the following about Cossack in Britannica : https://www.britannica.com/topic/Cossack
Cossack, Russian Kazak, (from Turkic kazak, “adventurer” or “free man”), member of a people dwelling in the northern hinterlands of the Black and Caspian seas.
Or too simply :
Russian and Ukrainian people.
So, Cossacks are also Slavic. The term that will not more likely find used now widely. Because instead of making both sides solving their problems, the informative machine is pushing for more pressure between both countries and now even Lithuania is involved. It's kind of they are blocking the passage of Russian trains to Kaliningrad. And from the map Kaliningrad seems to be a very strategic place because it's next to the sea. So, it's another issue that may lead Russia to a war with Lithuania, and we may see the same campaign, just like we saw it with Ukraine.
*And again, I'm not taking any sides here, because it's clear to me that both sides are playing this game. Where the victims in the end are regular citizens of both countries. From one side people losing their relatives, houses and running from their origin lovely country, and from the other side people being afraid to like me, that we will have a war here and the economic situation will be just worse with all these sanctions and what our politicians do.*
**No matter what side we take, no matter where we live, we just like to see Peace and Prosperity.**
That's why we should always look at the alternative source of information.
Could freedom of speech be dangerous ?
*Today I checked my old videos on 3speak, and you know they are all still there. Just like promised. And no matter what I talked about, I never faced any censorship in the platform. And that's so awesome !*
So, in this post I would like to check my thoughts about the topic of freedom of speech. Have I changed my mind about it, or I still think the same way I was thinking before.
Watch the video here ! https://3speak.tv/watch?v=clixmoney/hrnodogl
That was the video I created about 3 years ago. I talked in the video about the answered I've got from the popular website quora.com I didn't find the answer to share the link, because I remember them deleting one of my accounts because of some questions I asked. And who knows, maybe this one was one of them. Anyway, I asked the following there : ''Could freedom of speech be dangerous ?''. https://www.quora.com/
So, since they removed my question along with my old account, and I have the video on 3speak, so I'll screenshot the answers I've got 3 years ago and try to comment something about them. Because of course if they deleted my account along with my questions, the answers of those people are also deleted !
**Here is the first answer I've got from there :**
I still don't understand fully the answer, but at least I have better image about why people were against vaccination in 2019. And even smoking, because I quit doing that, and I also don't know what they put in those cigarettes. The same about alcohol. Anyway, after 3 years I would say that I'm improving in understanding the world and forming my opinion about the importance of freedom of speech.
**Here is the second answer I've got :**
You see, the opinion of this guy differs a lot. Because he considers unlimited freedom of speech dangerous. And he considers more tolerant society much better. And maybe he's right because I think that everything in life should be balanced. Just like we see that balance in the nature. We as society are responsible for what others think, especially if they are putting the on the public. So, at least we should guide those people to the right direction. So, we will see less violence in the world. And maybe just like I wrote about balance, we may need that balance of good and bad people, but again good and bad for people themselves is different, so maybe the nature, or the universe is what creating that balance.
**Here is the third answer I've got :**
Wow. I would say that's a very valid point of not restricting the freedom of speech. I know that some people in the world aren't that likable, but maybe they are getting rid of the negativity that they have inside and instead of turning to criminals, they feel better by putting what they think in the web. So, the victims who are bullied by them are kind of absorbing that energy to not let them commit crimes. It's like the Russian expression I wrote about recently, that means that we should choose what's less evil. Like between letting those abusers keep bulling people online, or stopping them while they can commit a crime in real life. But again, those who got abused by them can themselves be hurt psychologically or even commit suicide. So, they also have to understand that if they like to attack other people psychologically, not all people are that strong. So, they can hurt others as well. Because if someone is defending abusers based on their psychological status, they also should know that from the other side, there could be people with other psychological status, for example not experienced people or young. Those should also be protected.
**Here is the fourth answer I've got :**
I understand the answer, but the interesting part, is about exercising the freedom of speech. It's like practicing it. I wouldn't say that we are practicing it in centralized social media where they can delete anything they want. Because there we kind of want to practice it, but they don't allow us to do so. Here in decentralized social media, we are experimenting with is in many forms and that's really nice. We for sure have more chance to have the positive effect from freedom of speech on the blockchain. After all, I think the future is after the blockchain, and those centralized social media will disappear like dust. Maybe not after years, but more likely after many decades. Because I see so many social media created on the top of the blockchain, and we may see more of the in the future !
**Here is the fifth answer I've got :**
Maybe I acted in the video like I understand the answer, but I don't. Because I said that I don't agree with her, while it's clear the answer wasn't clear to me. Even now, I barely understand it. Anyway, if you can explain that to me, I would be happy to hear it. I understand now the word unfettered. And I would say that I'm not unfettered to not be ashamed that I don't fully understand the language and that's progress for me.
*Because to learn something, we should admit that we don't know about it.*
**After all, I'm also practicing my freedom of speech, just like I'm practicing the language to learn.**
As always, I'll be always happy to learn something new !
Forking is awesome !
*I witnessed all the takeover of steem and I remember creating a lot of content about it.*
I even created some great videos in 3speak like this one for example :
Watch the video on 3speak ! https://3speak.tv/watch?v=clixmoney/zhsmgvsh
That was more than 2 years ago even before even blurt was created. And no other forks existed.
And that's so correct, because decentralization for me is when everyone has the same value no matter what. But we have the proof of stake and that's not the case. The more power we have, the better is our upvote, and we have to decide who will be trending depending on that. To choose witnesses depending on that. Maybe that's should the case, I don't know. As always, I'll be always learning, and I welcome to hear any opinions. Maybe we have to sacrifice some morals for the sake of protecting our selves from the bigger centralization.
*In Russian, we say : ''Из двух зол выбрать меньшее''. That means we should choose what's less evil.*
**But in this post I would like to talk about forking.**
You may say, how decentralization is related to that. So, let me explain. Let's suppose someone want the blockchain decentralized from the government, but still somehow centralized in governance. I mean where the stake is leading. That could be done by a fork. Because from what I saw before, content wasn't hidden in blurt or hive, while it was hidden in steemit. I remember many of my posts were hidden in steemit before. It's a kind of bigger centralization, or we can call that censorship. At least in hive, we could be only downvoted, but in steemit that was hidden at all. Removed from the main frontend you can say.
Anyway, that was in the past, I don't know how steemit is working now, because I'm not that active there anymore. The only thing I know, that we still have people in blurt still not satisfy about it. While I see so many good people here who have nothing to do with drama. Artists, musicians, vloggers, great writers, comedians and many types of content creators. And no matter what's happening in blurt, I'll do my best to protect it and my investment here, because with that I'm protecting those people as well. And if anyone tries to contact me telling me shit about blurt, I'll tell him/her to not talk to me about that.
I'll keep powering up all my earnings in blurt, and I'll keep creating on it. And if anyone has a problem with blurt, go complain somewhere else. I'm not your father. And I'll be muting, blocking and ignoring anyone who'll tell me anything bad about something I'm investing in. It's interesting when I was a minnow, no one was reaching to me. Now when I'm dolphin and keep growing, some are trying to make me lose faith in blurt and to power down and leave it. If you're doing so yourself, do it, why talking others out. It's like committing a crime and calling others to help. I'm here to grow, I'm here to improve no matter what. Be responsible only for your own actions, but not for others.
**That's why I see forking is awesome !**
You don't like something about a blockchain, go and fork it and let everyone leave in peace. Take the example from hive and how a group of people decided to not be controlled by Justin Son and just decided to fork away and to stop all the drama and fighting. In the end we have two separate blockchains where everyone does what he/she wants. Why some people still have the pain in the ass !
I like hive because it has more applications on it. More communities from what I see. It even has hive-engine where people even can create tokens and many frontends and do what ever they want. We even have a frontend without downvotes vybrainium.com, a frontend with porn dporn.co, and many other frontends, each one of them has its own concept. And no one is downvoting what belongs there. That's the beauty of all this. https://www.vybrainium.com/ https://www.dporn.co/
And if we still have unsatisfied people about all the blockchain, they can still fork it. If you're that powerful to say so much shit about the blockchain, go and create another. We'll see how you'll lead it. How you'll make it fully decentralized as you say. It's easy to say that when you didn't try. I'll be just happy to see more blockchains created. Who knows, maybe you'll make it there. Maybe you'll be able to repeat the success. Because the success is not only in making the price of the token go up, or to make the coin ranked on coinmarketcap. The success is represented in the existence of the blockchain. If it's still operating, working, people, especially developers didn't give up on it, so it's successful.
*It's always easier to criticize instead of creating and building.*
**Let's be reasonable. And if you don't like something, try to do better !**
I see forking is a healthy competition that benefits everyone !
Salaries of blockchain developers !
*As content creators sometimes we forget about the work done by developers.*
Some may even complain about them, because they see them earning well.
But are they really earning that well ?
So, let's talk about the blockchain we're active in. I think most of the developers are doing well, but they all deserve it. Because of many aspects :
They are at the same time strong believers in crypto.
They are happy to earn our tokens and to make them grow.
They are at the same time investors in the blockchain.
They are working day and night to keep the blockchain on.
They may even earn less that they could, but keep being here for the idea.
They are close to the community, providing huge service !
So, let's suppose that someone is not happy with the recent developers. And want them to go away, or to replace them. Of course such people should find the alternative. Developers with the same characteristics I mentioned above. It's almost impossible to do. Because most of our developers are here for years. They are coming from the old blockchain to the new one to make it better. They are experienced in this. They are giving all themselves to our blockchain. So, never dare to discredit their work. Unless you have really worthy developers who may do the same work. What I see impossible to have.
*I've been more than 5 years on all this, and I like to look at the big picture. Try to look at the big picture yourself. Look at how much blockchain developers are paid in the real world :*
Do you have that many to pay them ? Or you may have the same developers that we already have ?
**Sometimes people have to think before even writing something.**
Because a working blockchain is what the end user need !
When kids fighting !
*I'm a parent and I see so often when my kid is fighting another kid.*
In this post I would like to share what usually parents do when seeing kids fighting.
Usually kids fight for something. That could be a toy, material thing. Or a place or maybe a position in a playground.
**So, what parents usually do ?**
Every parent takes his/her kid away. That's the only solution. And parents never put more fuel in the fire. They understand that kids are under emotions. And that those kids could do wrong things.
**But what else we can do as parents ?**
We're here to educate our kids. To make them learn better from their mistakes.
*I wish more people in the world have a parent mindset.*
**Everyone can be a parent even without having kids.**
Do your thing !
*Every blogger has to do his/her own thing.*
If you're an artist keep drawing.
If you're a writer keep writing.
If you're a vlogger keep vlogging.
Don't waste energy in negative.
In what you can't impact.
Direct that energy to create.
**Ignore the storm !**
https://soundcloud.com/perio/do-your-thing-perio-moondogs-cover
Nice music about that.
*Keep it up.*
**How nice is that.**
Look at the big picture !
*We often look at the little picture and in the end we may panic and lose it all !*
Look at chart, and you'll understand what I'm talking about. After each up we may see down. Just like in life, ups and downs. And you know what big investors do now ? They buy the dip to sell after. And even if they buy now and see that the price keep going down, they just hold until it's up again. It's not an investment advice, but a clear observation from the chart. So, we may have a support level where investors didn't sell, but now they seem to be selling. A lot of them selling at the same time. But they will buy again in the dip. Some of them may consider $20k is the dip, so of them wait till $10k to buy a lot.
Let's compare between the previous two top. About 6 months between them. Both in about $60k. That means during those 6 months they kept dumping, till the point where most of them start buying a lot. And pushed the price to $60k again after dumping it to the half and that's about $30k. Most of them saw the dip there. Could we see the same scenario ? Why not. That's why to not lose it all, it's better to hold and sell at least closer to that $60k again. That's of course if we don't need that money too much. So, this post is for bitcoin holders. But if you compare the price of other crypto with the same way, you'll see them similar.
Let's look at the other period of time. I see the lower price we take, the smaller is time to wait for the price to come back where it was. So, I'm taking the period of the end of 2021 and March 2022. It was $50k and it went back to $47k. It's kind of rule we can extract from this. The shorter the gap, the lower is the top. It's kind of logic. Short terms bring less than long terms bring. Because while the dip in the first situation went to almost half. Here we see the price went to about $36k and that's the dip. So, it didn't lose 50%, but about 30%, maybe. That's why most of the investors seem to trade in long term. At least 6 months. And if we talk about those who trade in a period of years, we see them doing so well.
We should also not forget to check the marketcap. Even with the price being low, the money seem to be there.
Also, I would like to compare between the price when we had the same marketcap in 2020 and now. So, when it was about $356B the price was about $20k. And now the price is the same. Here we may come to conclusion that the price is related directly to marketcap. That's why I don't see any reason for the FUD. I understand if we were now at the same marketcap, but the price went much lower, but it's not the case.
*Anyway, that's my analysis. That's how I see things. You can tell in the comments, how you analyze the market usually.*
**I try to look always at the big picture. That's the best thing to do in my opinion !**
What is decentralization ?
*Yeah, yeah, I know that I'm on blockchain for more than 5 years, and still ask such questions, but really, when I see everyone talking about it, I would like to understand the real meaning of that !*
Let's suppose I just joined the blockchain, I'm new here, and not even a native English speaker who doesn't understand the meaning of all English words. And I'm already not a native speaker, and I learned about this word only after joining steem.
So, the first thing I would do as a non-native speaker, is going to google and find the meaning of the word. So, it's saying :
the transfer of control of an activity or organization to several local offices or authorities rather than one single one.
I guess they meant the lack of control at all, or it should include control anyway ? They confuse me as well. I thought decentralization is when people can decide what they want, but not a few telling them what to do.
When I was new to all this, I just thought that decentralization is not letting the government involve in everything. Then I thought that decentralization not letting others tell you what to do. Maybe I was wrong, or still wrong really I don't understand.
*I'm inspired to write about this after reading the post of* *@fervi* *here :* *Should we get rid of ....**.* https://blurt.blog/@fervi https://blurt.blog/polish/@fervi/should-we-get-rid-of-the-blurt-foundation-or-czy-powinnismy-sie-pozbyc-blurt-foundation#@clixmoney/rdfnro
Here is a part of the comment I left there :
I see votes based on stake not Decentralization for me. Maybe I'm wrong ? Money talks is Decentralization ? Interesting. Maybe I need to learn more.
Also, I would like to share this post : The new mayor is as bad as the old mayor. It's kind of actual by the way. Where I commented with the following : https://blurt.blog/democracy/@ajerkoff/the-new-mayor-is-as-bad-as-the-old-mayor#@clixmoney/rdexev
That's why I don't like anything to be based completely on vote. It's like giving credit to the most, while others also have to have a place to be. Let's imagine 51% voted for ''punishing'' someone and 49% said no. Should the person be ''punished'' only based on that ? I think no. There should be evidences, and many other things considered. Maybe it's a hard topic to talk about, but really basing our lives only on votes could be a slippery slope.
**Maybe I'm mistaken, I really don't know, those are just my crazy ideas. lol**
Anyone can answer me :
What is decentralization ?
Why to not care about the blockchain !
*More than 5 years on the blockchain creating content and learning almost every day. How could that even possible.* lol
So, I've been so long here, and sometimes I feel that everything is mixed in my head. I kind of live on the blockchain and many of you are. But we should never forget that we're people, but not robots that automate their content and curation to earn crypto. After all, we're all here because of the social aspect of the blockchain. That what makes the proof of brain still on. That what makes us comment, create, and consume the content we like. And the most important is building relationships, because that what will never go down in the price.
Let's suppose you give all yourself to a blockchain. And for some reason after years someone really powerful will come and try to change everything you worked on and your friends, and people you know for years. Just like happened to us in steem. I mean I was so hard on myself working to promote steem, to create shows there, to help newcomers, and in one day everything turned against me. Just because of an opinion I said. So, the time I lost was for nothing and I lost all the support I was getting for years.
*That's why maybe I don't like that much that most crypto turned to proof of stake. And it can get worse in the future. Maybe there will be projects where if you'll not have good amount of that crypto, you'll never join it. Who knows, crypto world is really huge.*
**The goal in this post :**
We should build relations here, and we should be in touch with people in other social media. At least telegram or discord. And when our relation with people will grow, we'll have nothing to fear. Even if someone will tell us that the crypto we're holding will collapse. Because there is a magical rule and that's diversification, if you'll invest all your money in one crypto, you will more likely lose it sooner or later. That's why give a chance to each crypto you like. Grow in them all, and the ones you'll like it more build your community there.
Because in case anything happen to your favorite crypto, you'll just move to the other, or you'll build with your community there. So, finding a few people you can trust, learn from, and build with, is the gold of being on the blockchain. Don't set a goal to earn as much as possible, but set a goal to find people who'll stand with you in any case !
*After all, we may just spend our crypto, but the relations we build will stay forever.*
**Don't love crypto more than people !**
People are those who'll make you rich !
Crypto can just disappear.
And there is nothing to fear.
I don't know if the fear is artificial, or it's just the wrong picture we see. In both ways, we lived so long in fear. I choose to not be afraid for losing crypto, but be afraid of losing a real friend. Or an opportunity to find more real firends !
Choose the right mentor !
*Sometimes no matter how successful we are, we need someone who can help us improve.*
Of course the best mentor is our following, because they give us the right feedback about our content. But still, when there is someone more experienced than us, it's better to learn from him/her.
I can't say that I have a mentor, and of course being our own mentor is the best thing we can do. But when there is a content creator who's doing what we expected, and what we liked to be done, we try to do the same or even being better.
For me my mentors are those who inspire me. Those who I can't stop consuming their content. Those who I'll never unfollow unless I see them changing a lot. When I see them following all the principles they always created for, that what makes me so happy about them.
Especially I like to follow the independent thinkers, who base their content on their own research, but not having the same source of the information again and again. I like those who are not influenced by someone, or something, but sharing their own truth.
*There is also a kind of hierarchy of mentors : Ourselves and own experience, our followers and their feedback, those who we follow and their content.*
**But still no matter what, we should keep learning and changing for the best.**
Without change there is no improvement !
Your dream is your duty !
*I would like to write about my experience with dreams.*
Of course, I don't mean those dreams we see at night, but the things you always wanted in your life.
The more I live in this world, the more I realize that there are things I can still learn. And now I'm sure that our dreams are only our own duty. So, we can make them come true or not even try.
Yesterday I washed the following short animated movie and I realized that the society may slow down our progress, but it still in our hands to make the change :
https://youtu.be/ehWjYOhiER8
Still, I'm not ok with not letting kids improve and express themselves, and to push them to do only what's for their best in our opinion. But still no matter how hard was that for a kid, when he/she grows up, they can still build their personality and maybe the things that didn't allow them to do that in their early age, are the catalysts that will make them stronger after.
I love quotes, and that's the picture I have right behind my pc on the wall. That was a gift from my wife. I would say one of the best gifts I've got from her. I can't say that I look to that every single day, because I know very well what it's all about. By I have that always in my mind. And by experience I would say that dreams always led me to great things I've got. From leaving the country I didn't like, to singing on the scene, to getting married to the right woman, to being independent partially from the system.
I would say I achieved most of my dreams and I still have some, and I'm even coloring those that I already had. For example, when I dreamed to act, I'm doing that in some of my videos, the same about dreaming to be a singer, even of being a good blogger and I still improve my writing skills. The same about interviewing people, now I'm learning how to create a show for many people. That's just like interviewing, but dealing with a group, but not a single person.

I'm mostly inspired to write about dreams after listening to that song. I couldn't find the lyrics, because I wanted to try to sing it, but I'm glad I can understand all the words there. It's really cool and powerful one.
**Holding on to what we believe is the best we can do to achieve our dreams !**
https://youtu.be/NHsVZ5EUBZM
And especially if you have dreams you think are so big that's impossible to realize, never think that way. Because you have to know that everything is possible, almost everything. And even if you don't do it the way you wanted, at least being close to that is already good. That's why even without becoming a singer, I still try to sing in front of the camera. Even if I make mistakes, even if I can't always sing it right. It's always nice where there is space for improvement.
**Don't let the society or anyone tells you that you can't.**
You can !
My song is love !
*Maybe I'm not that good at writing poems, but I would like to write one about love.*
My song is love.
My song is peace.
I'll send my dove
To plant the trees,
But I'm not gove
I will not cease.
I'll keep involve
To live at ease
I'm not sure what's dove, but it was translated as "drunk" in one urban dictionary.
*I hope the meaning is clear, and you will like it.* :)
**I am really tired of politics, as most of us are!**
We all hope for a better world.
Improvement is the key.
5 years on a blockchain !
🎉 Today I'm celebrating my five years on the blockchain creating content almost every day ! 🎉
**So, you can find me on the following social media :**
*Steemit.com**, where I joined in 25th of May 2017,* *hive.blog* *that forked from steem, and of course on blurt. I'm also active in* *read.cash* *and* *noise.cash* *where I already earned about 2 bitcoin cash.

You can check also what was done with @dcooperation community during all this time. I'm also the founder of DCC token, you can learn about it here !. That's why I'm working so hard on @blurtcast, that what supposed to be the decentralized collaboration. https://blurt.blog/@dcooperation https://hive-engine.com/trade/DCC https://discord.com/invite/9KkBsxPybF https://blurt.blog/@blurtcast
So, I'm a simple guy who was born in Algeria, and who has an Algerian father, but a Russian mother. And impressed by the Russian culture while studying here in Russia for four years when I was in my 9 to 13 years old. Then I had to go back to Algeria and finish my study there in Arabic in primary school, then in French in the high school. And I've got my first education there. I even shared my thesis on the blockchain : Sound themes ( The voice ) _ Les thème du son ( La voix ) - [Eng/Fr]. And you can learn more about my story here !.. https://hive.blog/hive-163521/@clixmoney/sound-themes-the-voice--les-theme-du-son-la-voix-eng-fr https://hive.blog/hive-177976/@clixmoney/what-i-ve-learned-from-my-story
Anyway, I came back to Russia in 2010 and started to study here again, because that was the only way to get a visa. So, I was an immigrant in Russia, and it was hard for me to find a work. I even worked in the construction, I dug holes, lifted weights, painted walls, repaired pcs, and did many things to survive as an immigrant student in Russia. I was depressed, I was broken, and I even almost killed myself once. But thanks god, thanks to the strict education of my father despite I still don't talk to him, thanks to my mother who always stand by me. And she was the one who saved my life. So, my mother not only gave birth to me, but she was the one who saved my life literally, and I wish her the best things I never wished to anyone in the planet. She is the best of the best. And I proudly say she is RUSSIAN !
So, when I was a student here, I had to look for anything to have some money to eat. I even remember days when I didn't eat all the day long. Because I wasn't the kind of people who ask for help, but I was doing my best to earn it, if not, I just stay hungry or eat at least the chiefest porridge I could afford. That's why I understand people who were or are homeless. That's a big lesson of life. I felt that something wrong is with the system since there are so many people like me struggling to survive. And I'm sure that such people still exist. That's why when I hear from someone having so many goods in his/her life, I tell them that's they don't have to judge people that hard. Because it's hard to understand the situation they are all in.
Then while looking for friends here in Russia, I founded an English club. Where many foreigners in Russia were meeting to practice their English. And I was doing that in one town, then I moved to a bigger city called Rostov on Don.
One of the best meetings I ever created was the one I called ''Cowboy's Party''. Where I asked the participants to wear something to look more like cowboys. That was fun. We even invited an English teacher from UK, who was living and teaching here ! And that's how I met my Russian wife by the way.
At the same time, I found out about bitcoin. Maybe too late, but still early. That was after already living 2 years as an immigrant student. I started to learn a lot about it. I liked the idea of decentralized money to see people living a better life. So, I started earning it since then, and it's a kind of habit for me to do now. I started to earn it from faucets, still remember those faucets that were giving about 500 satoshies per claim, that about $0.15 now what you will never find now. That's why I still sometimes claim in freebitco.in for fun. So, I tried so many websites to earn those satoshies, and I even remember a website where I was so active, and I earned the total about 0.17 BTC on it. Still remember that time.
So, the thing I didn't like about those websites is that I had to invite people to earn. Referrals I mean. And many of those websites turned scams after that. I even lost money in some of them. And I remember how bit connect was so famous, and I'm glad I didn't join there. Anyway, one day I was watching youtube videos to find a better way to earn and to be sure that the people I'll invite will not be scammed. That's how I joined steem/hive in 2017 and exactly the 25th of May 2017. It's nice to see that transaction in hiveblocks.com. ☺
So, I proudly say that I've been in steem/hive/blurt for 5 years ! Because the idea of blurt and hive have a background of steem and that's a fact.
After the fork I wasn't that active here, but about a year later, I got myself together, and I started my activity again. I have a special thanks to those who motivated me to join, and of course to all the community who were commenting me, supporting me, and giving me that feedback to keep it on. I'm especially thankful to all those who contributed to #dcc and still holding the token DCC I created on hive-engine. And thankful to everyone who is working hard and doing his/her best no matter what ! I'm thankful to all those who joined @blurtcast and who are helping me to create those great collaborations there. https://blurt.blog/trending/dcc https://blurt.blog/@blurtcast
I wouldn't complain now because after all those difficulties, I found better work after, earning from my content is what helped me to realize myself. I'm glad I finished my study here anyone and that I've got my citizenship, because that was the goal, but not the two diploma I've got, one bachelor degree in international economics and the other master degree in transport. I'm glad I've got married to the best Russian girl ever for me. I'm glad I have a little almost 5 years old son. So, his birth also gave me in life a lot of lessons to learn. I'm glad of being a father and a husband.
*And now with powering up for more than a year all what I earned here, I have more than 100k blurt power, almost 10k hive power, and I'm thankful to all blockchains I post in.*
**Thanks everybody. ☺**
More important than good or bad !
*After taking my doze of positivity and break of writing about politics to not lose my mind, I'm back with more power and motivation !*
**It's as always about ''Divide and conquer''.**
Let me think of how many topics we argue about ? A lot. Like really a lot. But do we argue that much about the most important thing ? What's the most important you may ask. I would say a lot. One of that is freedom. But of course not the freedom to fight each other for ridiculous things. And what we usually fight for ? Race, religion, nation, opinion said, or a platform we post in ? And you think that's the most important ?
*I just found this video, and I'm full of emotions :*

Will you keep supporting the narrative ? Oh, I don't know so how to explain that. Vax, anti-vax ? Pro-Russian, anti-Russian ? Left, right ? Elon lover, Elon hater ? What else, what platform you prefer the most ? Maybe something else ? I think there is a lot.
**And again, a new Squid Game just started, maybe.**
So, I guess we are moving from covid plan, to war, to another harder pandemic billy talked about. Monkeypox maybe, that's the plan ? So, you made it with covid, now with the war, so the next level is monkeypox. And what we will have to do ? Anybody knows ? Maybe a special drug ? Maybe to starve and that will be safe and effective ? Because the food crisis they always talked about.
*Don't be foolish ! Stop fighting ! Let's unite before it's too late !*
We survived the previous plans, let's make it with this one. I'm ready for it. Maybe if we don't want to unite with positivity, worse crisis will make us unite ?
*Don't fall in the trap of hatting others. And if you don't like something about somehow it's not the time at all to put your differences in the first place !*
**Let's put all our difference away and work together on making strong relationships.**
Don't you see before the pandemic how close to each other we all were ?
More reasons will be created to divide us.
Let don't let that happen !
The money or the truth !
*After all we always have two options, either to be fully materialists, or to be real !*
As a non-native English speaker, I heard so much about being real, but not fake. And I always wanted to understand what people mean by that. Usually it's not clear what they meant by that. So, I had to experiment to understand. I mean our journey in creating content is after all an experiment where we see how our audience reacts, and it's up to us to give them what they want, or to keep sharing your truth no matter how the audience reacts.
I'm seeing so many famous vloggers and even bloggers using this technique. I mean, giving the audience what they want and leaving their authenticity behind ! Especially when I see one narrative supported the most. I even see people having nothing to do with the topic, or not even knowing anything about it, but just repeating what others say to get rewarded. They know where the money is. And they may think that no one is noticing that. Of course those who have been in this for so long, they can distinguish the real from the fake, in terms of whether someone is really sharing his/her opinion, or just repeating it after others, or for money.
And the interesting thing is that finding ourselves in such situation where we have to choose between support and truth, it's sometimes hard to do. But the thing we should do is hearing our intuition, hearing what real people are loud about. And mostly the truth comes from real people, but not journalists, or even famous vloggers. Because we all know how the algorithms of social media work and who own them. That's why taking it for granted from the mass media or someone popular in a social media could be a slippery slope.
*After all we have to think twice about the side we take. Money can go away, but the reputation will be hard to restore.*
**Because even with the truth we can earn that money, but that will be clean.**
We never should let the greed win in us.
Let's do what's better for people !
R.E.P. : Russian Expressions & Proverbs
*I would like to continue sharing Russian expressions.*
Because I find in them a lot of great meaning. And I believe in the power of Slavic culture.
Утро вечера мудренее.
*That means : ''The morning is wiser than the evening.''*
I would explain it in the following way : When you have something to do in the evening, but you're tired to do it, it's better to do it the next day, or just to move that to another day. Because we shouldn't force sometimes circumstances.
Also, it's good to go to sleep earlier and save your energy and health. Or sometimes even to take a break from the hard work you do. Because you may come back to it with better energy and new ideas. That way the work will be even better done.

R.E.P. : Russian Expressions & Proverbs
*Let me keep sharing some Russian expressions and proverbs and this one is really interesting one.* ☺
**Не тронь говно-вонять не будет !**
It will be translated like : ''Don't touch shit, it will not smell.''
It's about some people that better to not deal with. To avoid I would say. Or even to ignore. Because sometimes it's just a waste of time and energy, really.
*That's why it's better just to give that time and energy to those who really deserve it.*
**Don't take it personally, it's just an expression. ☺**

R.E.P. : Russian Expressions & Proverbs
*Today my son was playing in the playground with a kid, and another one start being unpleasant. So, I decided to take my son home to avoid any harm for him.*
Of course my son wanted to play more, and it was already a bit dark outside and I took him and start explaining why we needed to live. By experience, I know that's better to not deal with some people at all. And that's how I thought about the following expression :
**Сила есть, ума не надо !**
That means : ''There is power, no need for mind.''
They mean by that, when some people have power, they don't use their brain.
That could be also said about the abusers of the power they have. And the abuse can come in any form.
And most of us here know what I'm talking about, but it doesn't mean that there aren't other types of power demonstration. Even here that could be seen.
**The solution :**
No matter how much power we have, we should act with others with respect. And even if we feel that someone is mistaken, we can show him/her the right directions politely, with wisdom, and some metaphors.
*I guess that's what I'm doing with sharing Russian expressions to the world.*
**That's how a simple expression can make us think about so many things.**
In every nation we can find the good and the bad.
There is no perfect nation !

Weird Hungarian Expressions and Proverbs #2 https://blurt.blog/blurtep/@petrapurple/weird-hungarian-expressions-and-proverbs-2
R.E.P. : Russian Expressions & Proverbs
*I would like to share in this post a Russian expression about safety and success.*
I'll translate this time the following expression :
**Тише едешь — дальше будешь !**
That means : "The quieter you go, the further you'll get."
*You may see only one meaning here, but I see a few of them.*
The first and the most obvious is about driving a car. Because they mean "here to drive" when they say "go." So, we may say : "The quieter you drive, the further you'll get." It's all about safety. Especially with the fast cars we have, and especially being young, we can drive so fast and not get anywhere, or drive slower and always get to the destination.
The second thing that I see is about success. The slower we learn about everything, the more time we spend digging into information, the more chance we have to succeed.
And the third is also about people who are so loud about what they are doing. They may talk a lot without doing anything, or just act like they are doing it. While we should judge people by their actions, not their words.
**I'm enjoying writing about expressions I hear all the time.**
That's a part of Russian culture that, so many don't know about around the world.
I'll be sharing more.

Enjoy. :)
R.E.P. : Russian Expressions & Proverbs
*I already shared a few Russian Expressions & Proverbs in my other posts, and let me share this one as well :*
**Сделал дело - гуляй смело !**
That means : ''You did it - Go boldly for a walk with.''
Or maybe go to stroll !
I'll explain it anyway. That means, you're free to go or to enjoy your time, only if the work is already done. Maybe the translator is right, and it's : ''Business before pleasure !''. But I just wanted to translate it in my own words.
*Such expression is told usually by parents to their kids, or even by grandfathers as well. People use it often here.*
**Mostly the Russian culture is based on such wise expressions.**
It's one of the reason why I liked the language.
After all the culture has nothing to do with what's going on.
The culture is people.

R.E.P. : Russian Expressions & Proverbs
*I've started this series of posts recently :* *R.E.P. : Russian Expressions & Proverbs**.* https://blurt.blog/russian/@clixmoney/r-e-p-russian-expressions-and-proverbs
Since I know so many expressions in Russian, I would like to share them. They are really full of wisdom. And since I wrote today this post about fear, I would like to share a proverb about that. https://blurt.blog/psychology/@clixmoney/fear-is-never-the-solution
**волков бояться — в лес не ходить !**
*That means, ''Fearing wolves = not going to the forest.''*
I think the meaning is clear. If we're afraid of going in a place where there could be a danger, it doesn't mean that we don't have to go there. Sometimes we're afraid to say something, to someone, or somewhere. but it doesn't mean that if we're going to say it, we're going to get hurt for sure. After all there are many ways to say it, and people can read that between the lines.
*Anyway, that's one of my favorite expressions and I just like it how it sounds.*
**I'll be coming with more great expressions and proverbs to share the culture.**
It will be by the way interesting to see people from other countries doing that.
