It’s interesting to me that individuals would rarely identify as susceptible to misinformation, and yet en masse it seems pretty clear that millions of us are vulnerable.
- bigbadfeline 1y agoAlthough this problem's been around since forever (M Twain: “It's easier to fool people than to convince them that they have been fooled.”), there's a pretty good chance that it can be solved if a determined community approaches it seriously enough. That of course leads to the need to resolve problems like "determination" and "community" but here things get a bit circular in addition to the obvious resource constraints.
