It's not okay to gossip about people because...

@Erato

Because gossiping spreads rumors and damages a person's reputation

Because there is always more than one side to the story

Because you're only listening to one narrative,
Because it could have been spread through so many people that it's not even one narrative, it's too many.

@Erato Because you wouldn't like it if someone did that to you. We are supposed to be loving caring human beings.

It is not okay to gossip because the truth can get misplaced. People can get hurt easy and people can start to believe that gossip even if it is not the truth etc...
