What's Wrong with Discussion Today?
Content Overload. We're drowning in information.
Misunderstanding and Confusion. The telephone game isn't just for kids.
Sometimes, we may write something that's untrue and not realize. Other times, we read something misleading and misinterpret it. Often, important information gets lost or forgotten as the debate ensues. Always, we miss out on the full story because of bad communication. |
Unheard Voices. If a good idea was said but no one heard, is it still a good idea?
Censorship and Lack of Privacy. Social media, Big Brother, and you.
Social repercussions for expressing unpopular beliefs is the new censorship. Discussion is met with intolerance and vitriol. If we can't question in public each other without fear, how do we expect to keep experts or leaders accountable? |
