I think Hive is doing a pretty good job of building a new world society. We started by rejecting the slave mentality of centralized control. We said no to Justin Sun and his control. As time has passed one of the things I am most proud about Hive is the time and diligence the developers have put in on breaking away from the old and building a solid foundation. No real tail chasing of the reward pool on the last two hard fork, outsiders can now look and see that we are not chasing pie in the sky rewards.

People are letting it be known what is tolerated and what is not on Hive. We have very little plagiarism any more, a lot less spam, and a lot less selfishness on Hive. It is slow going yes, but when you look at the very wide view of all the differing societies people come to Hive from, I think we are doing a very good job of melding together the better parts of a vast variety of communities and societies.

We really are well on our way to breaking free of the chains that bound us. It took time for the people of America to break away from England, It took time for Mexico to break away from Spain, and a lot of other countries to break away from their original centralized controllers. None of these countries did it over night. Hive will not do it over night either, but we are a long way from where we came.
