Most of social media today rewards bold claims—but not the process of refining them. The more you double down, the more attention you get.
But I want a world where people can share strong opinions in order to refine them, not just defend them. Relationships—online or in person—should shape our beliefs, not just reinforce them.
Dialogue shouldn't be just about making a point but instead being open to updating our views.
Updating can look many ways, including being even more sure about our perspective.
So, for some of you, my "hot take" is that you should risk sharing the scary thing. For others, my "hot take" is that you should risk having your views updated after you've shared them.
Which camp are you in?
