RE: Freedom of discussion

in #thoughts5 years ago

For the majority, change is slow and happens under protest. No matter what they are told, they will stick with the old ways till the new ways are inevitable.

Automobiles, flying machines, personal computers, mobile phones, the Internet itself were all broadly rejected and only embraced by a few foolhardy pioneers for quite a while. And there were always loads of reasons why they would never work, in the long term.

I wish you a successful and interesting evening!

The idealistic creators and the fool hardy first followers change the world for the average mass.

Indeed, they do!

But they seldom are given the title of "visionaries" till they have lived years as "delusional dreamers," while that average mass s-l-o-w-l-y decides that email and shopping on Amazon actually is pretty cool.
