1. The Idea I’m trying to present is that most people tend to act for others—they pretend a slime face for those they hate, compromises their actions and behaviors according to other opinions while enduring all those biases from them; even if those people are strangers they would never meet again.
2. I want to oppose the concept that I aforementioned, where people shouldn’t shift their thoughts, behaviors, even what they love to merely fit other’s opinions and make them happy about you.
3. Like I aforementioned, what I affirm is that people should directly oppose those who dare to offer bias or insulting opinions to them, rather than endure and compromise with it.
4. The context I’m trying to include would be how Ridiculous about the virtue people told to us, “endure other’s opinion and learning from it would eventually make you stronger”, would be. At least for certain opinions, it would only be filled with random biases and ignorance we should never care about.
5. The question I’m trying to explore would be “Why would people ever compromise those opinions about themselves (even if those giving opinions know nothing about them), even if those opinions exhaust them?” And “How did such a trend starts?”
6&7. I still require additional searching for artists and public figures that could be included within my paper.
8. I would first include the personal anecdotes I mentioned within my Rankine’s draft, where I exhausted from others’ opinions and even start questioning what I love. My communication with Mabel could also be included within such draft as well.
Post the section of your "What's Your Truth?" draft that most accurately and clearly presents your thesis here. This might be a paragraph, two paragraphs: this is up to you and your approach to your essay.
