Guiding light [1/2]

It was often said that the best way to develop an idea was to brainstorm with different people. There were a lot of reasons for this, but mostly it was because if you grouped people who all thought the same way, there would be very little discussion and you would just have yes-men. 

In order to have a discussion, people had to be willing to take criticism and learn from each other. Unfortunately, in today's modern world, cancel culture has become quite prevalent. Instead of discussing and trying to understand other people's points of view, they just cut all ties. 

I understood where people were coming from. When you are tired and exhausted from work or school, the last thing you want to do is waste more energy arguing with other people. Unfortunately, the side effect of such a lifestyle would of course be that your social bonds were as weak as paper.
