Well, in site terminology it's known as 'sharing' if that does anything to ease your qualms. If I think it's interesting or something that needs more exposure I'll just share it whether I approve of the authors viewpoint or not. If I feel I need to further explain my views I'll leave a comment. Personally, if I saw you share an article about gang rape in india, Bradley Manning, a mass shooting, an injustice, or something alike I wouldn't think 'this person is endorsing this', I'd think 'this person thinks I need to see this'.
That's good to know. I wonder if this is the general feeling.I wouldn't think 'this person is endorsing this', I'd think 'this person thinks I need to see this'.
I think it is. This came up once before when lil pointed out that I shared something controversial. I did so because I knew it would spark conversation. I'll often share things because of the conversation and not at all because of the original post. But to your specific case, I would never assume that you agree with the sentencing just because you shared the post.
