Would anyone be able to tell me where in the Talmud remaining silent over speaking out is not the best option?
The question arises from my listening to a psychologist being interviewed about the psychology of mass movements. There was some discussion about the Solomon Asch Experiment when the psychologist mentioned the Talmud stating that a piece of our soul is lost when we forfeit the opportunity to speak our truth but choose to refrain.
It seems there is more written about silencing the tongue and Lashon Hara then on speaking up when there is a need. The question then could be how do you know?
Thanks for any help.
