Diversity of thought is more important than people realize.
The reason we see it in short supply is people build echo chambers out of insecurity, pain and desire to be validated.
So much of the current culture is based entirely on insecurity and not operating from CLARITY.

Good faith arguments are necessary. But have become impossible due to 2 things:
Lack of the ability to be thoughtful in criticism vs malicious.
Lack of the ability to give benefit of the doubt or generous interpretations of any given situation.

In other words people are bad at their delivery, and often just using criticism as a veil for bullying...
And on the other hand, ppl can also take anything as a reason to be offended and decide they’ve been attacked, even by something trivial or obviously non-malicious.

In isolation it wouldn’t be the worst problem, but at scale it becomes an arms race to find a place where your behavior and thoughts will be validated in perpetuity.
And where you won’t have to every consider the possibility that it’s okay to NOT have your POV validated.

It’s not that difficult to in any given situation to assume the most generous interpretation of a person’s intent.
The worst case scenario of that is literally just that you were overly kind to someone who falls short of your standards.
What’s so terrible about that?
