Middle of the ground people are mostly cowards too scared of conflict, or devoid of insight.
Maybe there's a middle ground between our two views.
Why are you so scared of conflict?
I'm not scared of conflict, I'm averse to needless conflict. I may get involved in a conflict for the purpose of breaking it up, or I may initiate a conflict for a good cause such as combating hatred and averting future conflicts - if I feel it'd be productive.
Great reply but... I was being facetious; making fun of the guy you were replying to 😁
I figured.
Why waste your time fighting when there's a solution everyone is happy with?
More likely a solution nobody is happy with but everyone can live with. Your point stands though.
