A propósito da tragédia do Meco e do bullying encartado

Concordo ipsis verbis com a forma como Bruno Nogueira descreve as praxes AQUI.

"Numa cultura em que ser social e extrovertido são valorizados acima de tudo, pode ser difícil, até embaraçoso, ser introvertido. Mas, como Susan Cain defende nesta conversa entusiasta, os introvertidos trazem talentos e habilidades extraordinários ao mundo, e devem ser encorajados e reconhecidos".
