Being Thoughtful in a Binary World

The goal of education and being a thinking human being is to understand that statements can have varying degrees of truth, not just being right or wrong. Society tends to view things in a binary way, such as labeling individuals or companies as either good or bad. This binary thinking leads to fear of expressing opinions or thoughts, as people fear being judged. This mindset also perpetuates outrage and cancel culture, where individuals face consequences for innocuous statements or actions. It is crucial to embrace thoughtfulness and understand the nuances in beliefs and opinions in order to create a more empathetic and open-minded society.
