The alternative is to never change your view, or to early on build a strong view on everything you have zero experience with, such as hospice care or the nuance of every immigration rule.
- clipsy 2y ago> The alternative is to never change your view No, I would say the alternative is to listen to and evaluate arguments and base your views on what you find to be convincing. The problem with the "I don't care until it happens to me" mindset is that they often flatly refuse to consider arguments until those arguments affect them personally; this isn't open-mindedness but rather closed-mindedness paired with a deeply self-centered world view.
