Send us Fan MailEp 412: The Butterfly EffectDo the things we don’t do matter just as much as the things we do?In this thought-provoking episode of The Butterfly Effect on hmTv, hosts Gilad Avrahami and Bernie Furshpan explore the powerful idea that inaction is never neutral. From everyday choices to moments of moral consequence, they unpack how small decisions, even the ones we barely notice, ripple outward in ways we cannot always predict.The conversation moves from personal habits and family debates to big questions about responsibility, intent versus impact, activism versus “slacktivism,” and the role of education in shaping a more aware and compassionate society. Using real-life examples, history, and the mission of the Holocaust Memorial and Tolerance Center, Gilad and Bernie examine why being a bystander is still a choice, why upstanders matter, and how even one person can be the tipping point in creating change.This episode is a reminder that democracy, justice, and human dignity are sustained not only by bold actions, but by the daily decisions we make to engage, speak up, and show up.Because sometimes the biggest impact comes from the moment you decide not to stay still.Support the show
