Is it necessary to remove #2?
Where is the mandate for spoon feeding consumers of information?
Is the risk posed by fact check, "My truth is bigger than yours", not greater than the benefit?
- belltaco 5y agoI guess if misinformation is primarily benefiting one side of the political spectrum, one is less inclined to think it's harmful to society.
- approxim8ion 5y ago> Where is the mandate for spoon feeding consumers of information? The mandate is born out of a culture that does not teach users how to consume information or to verify it, while making a ton of convincing-looking information readily available to them. If we all knew fact-checking and tracking primary sources, the world would be a better place. But these are skills that are not taught, and they should be.
