People are limited and ignorance will still be manipulated even if there is full transparency.

Isn't more transparency a good thing for those who want to help each other? 

Isn't it that people who want to abuse other want less transparency and more ignorance so they can more easily manipulate?

No, because more transparency hasn't shown that people are helping each other more. Such we can say here on Steemit, there are good persons which include Dan Larimer, who have helped others and continue to do it. This is on a small scale though. On a large scale just because everyone is transparent it does not mean everyone has the tendency to help others.

Abuse happens from transparency as well. Do you not think that under total transparency a lot of people will be psychologically destroyed by judgment cults? A judgment cult I will define as a group of people with a charismatic leader who decide to make it their mission to find fault(s) in other people and then punish them as necessary. Their behavior will be seen as moral of course because humans have an innate tendency to judge and punish.

Does this make a better world? More suffering, more punishing? Harsher and harsher punishments due to the technology? Until you show this persecution and punishment will not follow from the judging then you don't have the evidence showing it will improve the world and currently social media is filled with these behaviors when it's not as transparent as it could become.

The fact that we have tendencies to do such and such doesn't make them moral. I don't think so and there's many example of people who don't think so which would make your point moot. I'm open to being proven wrong obviously.

But back to the main contentious point. 

Dishonest people seek to manipulate and deceive and thus  they seek more secrecy and knowledge other don't have. 

Honest and benevolent people seek to share and teach. 

Everything is on a spectrum here. I don't think Dan is saying we should make our private keys public. I think he's saying we should work to make as much of the thing with large influence to be public and transparent.
