challenge us, our own ideas 

power to shake us into reflecting, is truly what I think correct? 

to “entertain” a thought, to explore it deeply without being blinded by it which is made easier by contrasting perspectives 

multiple ideas leads to a better and more holistic view of a topic

reasoning/playing around with an idea 

provide more reason to believe what you believe or provide contradicting knowledge on your beliefs and better educate oneself

humans turn on humans, on nature, on our planet, on science, and advocate for hatred against others.

damage that a group of people advocating against women empowerment and against human rights can cause 

history: Nazis, Armenian genocide, resulted in regretful outcomes

freedom of speech 

perceive when others are being hurt: choose to see the danger of that information or ignore our moral compass

communication allows info to be shared 

study human behavior: evaluate if contrasting perspectives have a positive or negative effect

my own thoughts have changed after heated conversations that ultimately led me to an understanding of others

understanding others’ reasons strengthens their claims and helps us better understand the diversity in our world 

emotion: WOK leads to a better understanding of the world around us and the reasons behind someone else’s beliefs.
