There’s a difference between cold calling people to beg them for a favor and trying to communicate with them.
I’m a botanist and I saw some one named Solanaceae. That’s a scientific botanical term for many types of plants belonging to the Nightshade family. I thought no one but someone who is an herbalist or botanist would know that name. So I /w them to talk about their name. We spent 30 or more minutes discussing herbalism and botany.
This is what a real social interaction looks like. This is what actual communication looks like. People with a common interest discussing that common interest. All you show when you claim whispering some stranger to ask them to join your group is communication, talking to people, is that you haven’t got a clue what real communication, an actual social interaction, is really all about. You might as well claim you had a social interaction with the Walmart greeter when she said, “welcome to walmarts” and you said, “thanks”.
