Social Platform differences of languages and actions:
I’ve notice some differences between Twitter and Tumblr that one platform says something exclusive to another. (but actually, words that are used by bloggers from one platform doesn’t actually mean what they say)
Example: (I’ll replace actual words with appropriate words)
-“He’s brooming a chimney“ (actually, he talks about house cleaning despite of his total inaction) That example reflects some bloggers from Tumblr only.
Back to the actual point about THIS: Just because someone said some unacceptable opinions in your platform, doesn’t actually mean they’ll take inappropriate physical actions that are against any laws. (because the probability of those actions that are taken because of opinions is small as always)
But I’ll tell you THIS: One reason to defend “them” is to let “them” to exist around us (aka self-exposure) which then the society can easily track them thanks to media. (but that doesn’t automatically make them being arrested because of only opinions and speeches, unless they take serious actions which is an essential difference)
It seems to be like a “devil’s game” by letting “them” talk or think absolutely ANYTHING (absolute free speech), but there’s the phenomenon when everyone wins:
-For us, we can easily know them because of their self-exposure and be prepared to stop them if they take serious actions. (which also means if they don’t, we let them be)
-For “them”, (despite the chaotic aura) they’re free to talk or think absolutely ANYTHING but with one essential condition: They’ll never be allowed to take horrible actions/crimes at all. (that also counts with EVERYONE ELSE)
When it comes to tell them to NOT DO IT, it still holds because without it, we wouldn’t be able to shrink the probability of them taking horrible actions/crimes.
The example I made earlier will remind you that you can’t just take action straight away with panic without actual proper research.
When it comes to Twitter, well, the bloggers here are doing pretty much the same thing like others from Tumblr but a bit different. (oh boy I wonder how that ended)
So, this example also counts with Twitter too. (or should I say: Most social platforms)
If you think some of my ideas in this post works, then good, if not, better ignore it.
(this post is written from most of my observation, the rest are my ideas)
