Hard to keep track of the arguments. Have to agree though. You could argue mcf is our own and the moderators' echo chamber. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess to really appreciate the article, reading the various book and academic papers of the different people he did his research on will make the article a better read. but gleaming from his summary, he is not wrong in the sense that in today's world, we are building a wall around ourselves to collate information that we selectively want to accept and then perpetuate it further with our own strong opinions about. Something like a ripple effect. Interesting read. much food for thought. 3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Benarsenal Turbocharged March 28, 2017 Share March 28, 2017 (edited) The points I took from that article: - Internet gives us more info than ever before - A lot of this info not necessarily true - Humans being humans, they will believe what they want to believe, based on conditions (upbringing, surroundings etc) - People will feel very strongly about things they 'think' will affect them (healthcare, environment, water, taxes etc) - So when people feel very strongly about things, they tend to have strong opinions (and now actions) - Then they go read up more on these things, and find the info they want to support their stand, not necessarily the truth - It becomes a vicious cycle, as people buy into conspiracy theories to support their thinking. These builds walls and lead to closed thinking, and people who disagree are seen as 'stupid' or 'disbelievers', and it eventually becomes 'us vs them'.
