RE: Why Minds.com Is What Facebook Promised To Be | A Video-Introduction
why do so many people feel the need to emphasize the right to be an asshole as part of their right to free speech. I do believe in their right to be able to say it, and I would hope everyone shoots them down and makes them feel like an asshole!
Of course!
That's why there are these heated battles to begin with. not only because someone (ab)uses his right to say whatever, even in an unconstructive and asshole-like manner, but because others will take him up on that offer hitting back with their viewpoint or emotional charge, which reveals a lot about the people making claims on both sides of the battle.
It can be a huge timesaver though,seeing who is "worthy" of honest discussion and who I should just let run out of steam all by himself.
Those people have never been on psychedelic journey. Otherwse they would not talk to others that way, especially when they want to build a bridge of understanding.
We live in times of covert ideologies and self-righteous knights of dogma who are fighting ultimately against themselves and are not getting it at all. Only, how am I ever gonna relay that to them in a shit throwing battle^^
Or why would I, to begin with?
Needless to say the more socially (and artificially) charged an issue is, the nastier the exchange. Homesteading, Permaculture, animal care... these are topics on minds where only few would use that type of communication approach, maybe except for the odd ass who saw an innocent post boosted and decided to ruin someone's day
