How to spread ideas- Seth Godin
Before Broadcasting Your Message

Recently saw a person broadcast a message on media. When others questioned her on the facts, she ran back to her little media silo (where you get only one sided views on whatever issue you’re interested in) replying to others but saying she didn’t want to hear back. Hmmm.
In order to have a free and just society, we must listen to the perspectives of others. That doesn’t mean we have to accept everything everyone says. If you’re going to quote ‘the experts’, I am going to ask you who those experts are, and what their experience is. If you can’t be questioned, then you’re running in the direction of Joseph Stalin.
Always remember to look at both sides of the issue. Your nation will last longer with thinkers than suppressors.
