作者：
Highlights：
• We examine the spiral of silence and civility on click speech using an experiment.
• Different effects were found for liking and commenting.
• Sharing behavior stands out as distinct form of click speech.
• Participants were more likely to like comments in a civil than uncivil environment.
• However, this depends on opinion congruence and fear of isolation.
