I would actually add my opinion in that that is how real life is. All of us minnows will be careful what we say to whales In order to avoid being crushed or shamed. In real life we are all subject to the way we react to the social cues and whether or not we allow it to affect what we say or not. Often though it is better to listen and to be heard. If you don’t have something nice to say sometimes it really is best to say nothing at all.
