Fearing Blame
Don’t Fear Social Media Warriors: Barking dogs don’t bite, biting dogs don’t bark…
The Persians say:
مرغی که نچیر (گوشت) میخوره نوکش کجه …
‘Birds who [hunt] eat meat have curved beaks.’
The hunters are known… so don’t be afraid when cowards threaten you … it’s like chickens and ducks threatening you … they don’t bite … if they were hunters, their beaks would have been curved.
People often bluff and their speech doesn’t match their actions. Just by observation, you know who bites and who doesn’t bite.
They talk big behind the safety of their screens – in real life, they wouldn’t dare talking like that.
“Social media made you all way too comfortable with disrespecting people and not getting punched in the face for it.”
– Mike Tyson
