Thoughts

What if I was to write or say something that was contrary to your beliefs and values. Would you feel compelled to respond? This is a social platform, right? Response is a requirement of its use, right? Is thought a social medium or a personal one? If I pose a challenging thought, is it social to respond that you’re thinking about it? What if the thought isn’t challenging enough, is a response required to affirm the static level of a competence? Is it possible to challenge a belief with rhetoric and see it change? Does a personal value change simply by attacking an assumed weakness? What if our greatest strength, silence, meant the end of a social forum designed to express opinion, would people prefer weakness instead? What if all forums of public opinion required the user to openly admit that the opinion being expressed had been approved and verified by three of their closest friends before it could be posted, would people care more about what they say? What if no one liked or responded to these questions, should I care less about you? If I care greatly about you, am I required to socially respond to those thoughts since silence appears to be disliked? Just some thoughts…
