I think it often comes down to the importance of authenticity and honesty. When I post something, I try to be true to my experiences and beliefs, even if they aren’t popular or widely accepted. Sometimes, the negative reception can spark meaningful discussions or help others who may feel the same way but are afraid to speak up. It’s important to allow space for differing opinions and to learn from them, both for myself and for others in the community. Plus, I’ve found that being open to criticism can lead to personal growth and understanding, which makes the risk worth taking.
