I am totally guilty of repeating a narrative, vs holding a cultivated opinion. Interestingly, I became aware of this in SteemSpeak listening to people argue about things they obviously didn't understand.
I've been working on being a better and more honest communicator ever since. I am thrilled that you put this in a post.
The news media gives us two overly simplified versions of an issue and we march out into the world and fight about it.
It's in the air this week! Great to see so much good conversation happening all around the internet about free speech and free thought. Cheers @whatsup
