And fine language skills. I always maintain that the health of a society can be seen in it's speech. Words are so beautiful and meaningful and those that resort to coarse, gutter language bring society down. To me it is like a choice between fine wine and Boone's Farm. I get that there are those that like the shock value but I always feel they miss the boat. We have thousands of years of writings where people expressed many varied opinions without the vulgarity we see and hear today. Yes, words have meaning. We tell the children "use your words" and I might add "choose your words". This, of course, is just my humble opinion but I am glad there are those who aspire to the finer things in life.
I love your post. Because what seems to happen on a lot of social media forums, is that once somebody disagrees with you, the type of communication disintegrates. It turns from healthy discourse, to name-calling, insults, and guttural language.
I find it quite amusing, but somehow taxing at times. The minute I see the word faggot, and it is directed at me personally, I lose all interest in communication with that person all together.
Yeah, total waste of time and effort. Otherwise I love a good, healthy debate. The thing about the left is they just cannot tolerate a dissenting comment or opinion. I think that is due to brainwashing since they possess no critical thinking skills. It is pretty sad because there is just so much to learn. I have always enjoyed understanding an opposing opinion because it either solidifies my viewpoint or leads me to alter my viewpoint and consequently I grow in knowledge and understanding. Knowledge is power...100%!
I really like your take on the subject. Because sometimes… There might be something else we need to learn. Being stuck in our ways, keeps us ignorant. i’ve had several conversations over the past year, where I was open to learning and seeing something in a new way. I was grateful for that person sharing that with me. Have a great day!
