It seems that everyone thinks information is dangerous these days. People just choose what information to be concerned about depending on their priors.

- NBJack 3y agoI mean, information is dangerous. The trick is are we willing to examine it for whether it is true, and if so challenge our preconceived notions, accept the ramifications to our life, culture, society, etc. I suspect the answer for many these days is 'no'; it is far easier to bucketize things and move on.
- Tagbert 3y agoInformation is definitely dangerous when people distort it and use it for political ends. You can publish verified data and facts with a very clear cut analysis but it is so easy for someone to take parts of that, add some spin and maybe some fabrication and use it to push their agenda.
