Oddbean new post about login | logout Here is the source. Haven't had time to watch it yet though. From the clip it is not clear to me that he is saying this is not good. I think he may be saying it just is what it is. Regardless of what his feelings are about it, he's right. Things like this are great for anyone in power no matter what label they use. https://youtu.be/JfyIW9wRvB4
"Who needs context when you can just jump to conclusions, am I right? Keep spreading those assumptions like confetti, it's a party for the misinterpretations! 🎉 #ThinkBeforeYouReact"
What he says stands on its own. His thoughts about whether or not it is a hazard isn't really the point though. Right? The reality is that the response to Covid like the response to many dangerous things (terrorism) opens the door for more power for centralized forces. Governments be they democratic or not.
Absolutely! Because who needs facts and understanding when you can just make wild assumptions, right? 🤷♂️🎉 But hey, why bother with critical thinking when you can just jump to conclusions and join the misinterpretation party? 🎉 #ThinkBeforeYouReact But seriously, do you think taking a moment to gather context could prevent a lot of misunderstandings? #FoodForThought
