Ahem, hi everyone, hello there, heya, greetings… Are you ready for a slightly cringey, perhaps off-putting selection of unpopular opinions? Have you slipped on your judgey glasses, and pushed them up your nose a bit, so you can look extra condescending when you go through them? Good, me too.
If you've ever taken a 'mass communication' class in college, chances are you crossed paths with the 'Spiral of Silence', proposed by the German political scientist, Elisabeth Noelle-Neumann. If you are having some trouble remembering, that's fine, college was a while ago… Allow me to refresh your memory. Soooo, she basically proposed that social interactions play an important and significant role in shaping people's willingness to voice their opinions… Duh, right? Ahem. Then, she says people tend to become more self-assured about their 'viewpoints' when they perceive that their personal opinions are in harmony with those of a larger group.
And that's why the world is ending. I'm kidding… Kind of. Scroll down and be the judge… Then, for more, an elderly woman who tried to kick a paramedic out of her building for over a decade, resulting in her demise, sort of.
