A statement on WorldSupporter has two main purposes: (1) starting a discussion or (2) sharing a thought to inspire others. You can make your own statement or use a quote.
- To start a discussion a statement preferably contains a short statement followed by the arguments in favor or against this statement.
- Return to your statement several times during the discussion to moderate the contributions
- A shared thought or quote will show on your personal profile and temporarily on the personal profiles of people who follow you
