I got to thinking about how almost every day, we all talk about the same things and think about the same things. And about how not engaging in conversations about these topics of the day ostracises us in the eyes of our fellow media consumers. To the extent that not having a view (or choosing not to express a view that you have) can bring haters to your yard. This is especially true if you have a bit of a following online, but I am sure it affects everyone to one extent or another. You just have to have an opinion!
And the other side of this coin involves all those ideas that do not get talked about or even thought about because we are all busy gaining each other’s approval by talking about the topic of the day. It involves all of us missing out on opportunities to expand and enrich our cultural horizons.
