Talking to fools

Dear world

A famous quote says that when we argue with fools, we are actually wasting our time and it does no good to anyone. That's actually true..
Recently I was arguining with one of my friends on a controversial topic. It was something about her belief. And the funny part was that, I knew more than her on the same topic. And  she kept on using the same point again and again and managed to keep me quiet for some time. I wanted to tell her that what she was quarelling on was utter stupidity, but she didnt want to hear it.
And I knew it was better to keep quiet than go through her wrath.

During such a time, one becomes a fool when we dont have the necessary knowledge. When quarelling on something, please do your research first and then fight over it. Because later you don't want to regret about whatever you told.

We indians(actually everyone should) need to read newspaper more . And get involved in debates and all. Right now the condition in India is soo bad that, one wrong word from you, and it becomes someones truth. People become a dangerous mob upon hearing some fake whatsapp message. Where are the people's senses?

We all need to know the truth, to know if something is true or not. A person who doesnt know the rules cant identify when someone breaks these rules. And by just education, one cannot have all the knowledge. For that the conventional way of newspaper is the best. But we need to be aware on whether or not, we are reading a good paper or not. We actually actually have a hand on deciding what goes in as input to our brain. So let it be only truth.
I study a professional course in chennai right now and still most of my friends dont read news. Like for example this is what they say:

"Self driving cars are available in the market now and people are actually buying it now" - I dont think that's true yet as companies are now also racing against time to complete their testing.
"Government of India decides whatever rules the supreme court takes" - rubbish (not really right)

Sometimes I dont know what I feel about them. If you ask them which is the currently running movie, then they would know... but they wouldn't know what is the controversial news right now.
And please don't put in your stupid comment on something you don't know. It just makes people lose faith in you.

I plan on putting a few more posts these days as it is Sunday and there is leave on October 2 too.

And I hope the government and social media giants decides on how to curb spreading on fake news online.
Hope they solve the issue as it has hurt many already.

Thats all for now
