Re: Internet Cowardice
Being an asshole on the internet and soft-spoken in real life can still mean you're "being yourself" all the time. Just because you choose to keep part of yourself under wraps at certain times doesn't make it any less a part of you.
And obviously everyone posting on here is from America/Canada/other generally “free” countries, where free speech isn't punishable in such ways as stated before. If they weren't in a free country, they wouldn't be here posting, I was just saying that even though you don't speak up for an idea, it can still be a good idea.
If you truly believe in it and standing up for the idea doesn't have any bad consequences on your life, you should stand up for it. If you're better off not speaking up (for whatever reason) not talking about it isn't two-faced.
Also, I feel this thread is going to start getting repetitive... more so than it already has. I'll just say that what one considers cowardice is completely the opinion of that person. And, seeing as we all have the right to our opinions in this country, and the gist of them have been duly stated in this thread, I bid you adieu.
