Why does the majority of people just assume people want to communicate... I have not read the article and never am going to. This headline premise alone of doing that will destroy any sanity I have. I do not, ever, want to talk you as a standard and you should never force that to me.

> Why does the majority of people just assume people want to communicate

The question is rather why would you assume that is the case? If it were, the majority of people wouldn’t have an issue striking up a conversation with strangers, but they clearly do.

Then perhaps refrain from criticising it?

The article isn’t suggesting anyone force anything. Quite the contrary, it advocates for respecting boundaries and even suggests how to communicate your own.

You basically just 'forced' me to read your comment. Aren't you talking to a stranger here?
