But do we fear saying the right thing

"Do we fear saying..."
No we do not. We're super into making sure everyone hears what we say, so we say it with bombastic proclamations. Because it is not about conversation, not about convincing others. It is entirely about
Virtue signalling
"...the right thing"
People don't say the "right thing". It is not important to say the "right thing". We say "the thing that we want to reinforce in our pack because our side believes in it and the other side doesn't".
Political people, when presented with facts or alternate points of view, just become
angry. That's how you know. It's not about "right".
This is more primal as sports. People are behaving as the apes that they are, dividing into packs and establishing alphas.
