Many people who will come to Steemit have been conditioned by the main stream media to be someone they are not.  Steemit gives us the power as a community to over time let us all focus on the really important issues, but that won't happen overnight.  We all have to make a contribution to get to that point.

Part of that will be to accept people as they are when they arrive and let the community develop and share their knowledge from that point on.
