User Carlidos posted a text that seems to be generated in a bulshit text generator, like bullshitipsum.com. The title mentions Genesis Mining and the text mentions other companies. I think that's why it got upvoted.

The text makes no sense at all and most certainly people did not read it. I did. Check it out: https://steemit.com/genesismining/@carlidos/truth-about-genesis-mining

I've seen people arguing that it is a good thing that crap is upvoted in Steemit. The problem is that this is simply wrong.

It is a good thing that a good post on a topic I dislike gets a lot of attention, or even a very simple or rudimentary post on a very popular topic gets a lot of attention. It is not a good thing that a pseudo text gets upvoted. Why? Because no one reads it. It is valueless. Worse yet, it damages Steemit reputation with those who will actually look for content in it.
