Opinions.. When is it enough?




Yeah I get that people have a right to freedom of speech, and that everyone is entitled to their own opinion and such. Your opinion and mine may differ but it doesn't mean that one is right and the other one is wrong either, but when is it enough? How much or how far do you go before its.. too much?

I realize that when it comes to voicing out our own opinions.. We rarely keep them in check anymore. I mean, it is the 21st century what right. We tweet, we blog, we update on our every thought and opinion ranging from anything from food to sensitive topics etc etc... And I've come to realize that people (probably myself included) these days tend to go overboard. Yeah yeah I know, freedom of speech and all but you also need to have a limit. I personally tell myself that if its a nasty opinion on something, I'd keep it to myself.. I try, at least. Some people just don't care. Why give fucks freely after all, right? But if you want to look like an insensitive git then by all means, go ahead.

Bottom line is, you CAN say whatever you want, but people just don't quite understand how to exercise restraint when it comes to humiliating, downgrading others and sensitive topics *silently judging you*
