Ask people to say something kind to their neighbour, and then something unkind. The source's whole commentary is one sentence: the wrong effect is often achieved.

Hold with care
  • People are asked to say something unkind to a specific person beside them, and it is real speech to a real neighbour whatever frame it is given
  • The source itself observes that this often produces the wrong effect and does not say what to do about it; a facilitator running this needs to have decided that in advance
