The "current situation" is not as clear-cut as many would make it out to be. Watching an emotional video is not the smoking gun that shows one side to be completely right, but that's what's happening now.
I would think a good write up/analysis using high quality statistics would be the way to decide what is happening in the "current situation".
But a graphic and emotional video is going to pull the strings much harder.
- vertex-four 6y agoA lot of people have been trying "good write-ups" and "high quality statistics" for a long time, it turns out they don't actually change people's minds - people make up their mind before reading the article. The production of "high quality statistics" hasn't been the turning point in any civil rights movement I'm aware of.
- throw51319 6y agoYeah - and i'm just saying that it should be, instead of an emotional response etc.
- vertex-four 6y agoFor what it's worth, I've read the statistics, I've read the counterpoints to the statistics, I believe based on them that there is a right-wing violence problem in the US and some other specific places.
