Not only that, it seems a quality rare and almost lost in social media. Polarized and not able to see the other side. It has been puzzling me especially lately.
@xs4me2 @Sheril I think social media is simply showing us just how polarised most people were in their thinking before social media came along to show just how multifaceted, nuanced, chaotic and paradoxical the world is and, naturally terrified, many people have doubled down and closed ranks as a defence mechanism. It will pass - it's a phase - a baptism of fire for many - dragged kicking and screaming towards critical thinking the hard way because education, or its lack thereof, has failed them
@freequaybuoy @xs4me2 @Sheril I admire your optimism.
