The flood of AI‑generated and socially‑amplified falsehoods makes a personal “BS detector” essential.

To combat this, we MUST:

- Think critically and recognize bias
- Seek reliable proof from credible sources
- Keep the BS detector “switched on”
- Lean on trusted expertise
- Cherish & protect these institutions

Really missing #ohnorossandcarrie these days. Decided I'm going to do a complete re-listen to the back catalogue.

But the research is clear. When you paraphrase what someone said—just playing it back to them—they become more open to your perspective. It works because people need to feel heard.

Try this. Repeat their point and ask, “Did I get that right?” Then follow up with, “What would make you reconsider your view?” That’s how you show you’re listening without having to agree.
