Are you a Zaper or a Downzaper?

Downzapers would be the Bears, right?

I'm not a bear at all, yet I downzap with every reward and boost sat I receive from scams and those from downzaps that others spent to downzap scams and other predatory posts. Rationale:

1. This is money spent with an intent to boost attempts at defrauding stackers of their hard earned sats. It is predatory. If a community does not protect itself against predators then it is not a community. We need to look out for each other, otherwise we might as well all be stupid openclaw agents. It's the real superpower of humanity: having an actual soul, which is infinitely superior to having a SOUL.md.
2. As a territory owner, I get the sats used for boosts on my territory. As an active zapper, I get a sizeable chunk of rewards. This makes me respectively directly and indirectly a recipient of scam money. That to me is highly unethical. I'd rather be hungry than get fed by scams. In fact, there are days that I am hungry. Yet I put more scammer sats into downzaps than most of you individually earned. About 500k this week - that's about a month, or a month and a half if I do my best, of food.

The incapability of stackers to behave ethically will have consequences. One of them will be that in the future, the pot will be less likely to grow big, because the algo will change. Which is lack of long-term thinking on the stacker's part, because downsats can be 100% circular; the current system is fully in favor of a strong ethical community. But if then there is nothing to downzap, you still get the sats. Then, you earned them. Now, you took the short-term gainz and just didn't think.

By your inability to ignore your greed and do good, you have proven that SN is not a strong ethical community, but simply a place where big and small predators come together for short-term gainz. You're not much better than the shitcoiners with their scams that prey on their fellow human beings. You're not living the low time preference, you're just acting.

I rarely downzap but occasionally will. Sometimes just for fun.

I’m just here to collect sats to build my beer fund

No, never.

I'm here to staaaack, not throw away

Rarely. It takes a lot to make me hit the downzapper button. But I have a few times

Nice try fed!

You should have a BOTH option

I am in the process of shaping my identity; currently, I move between the two (bear and bull).
