> everyone ... is in one way or another annoying to someone else
One popular way to fix this is to allow or encourage users to cocoon themselves in intellectual bubbles. This solves the annoyance problem but discourages the discovery of new ideas, stunting the development of the individual, and thereby the utility of the forum.
- TheSpiceIsLife 9y agoIs it true that a bunch of people cocooning in intellectual bubbles discourages the discovery of new ideas? University students, especially those who go on to complete a PhD, progress by studying more and more about less and less. Also, practising a religion certainly isn't a liberal arts major in comparative religious studies, in the same way neither is joining a political party. And yet here we are with all this progress regardless.
