  • Nobody cares “how it works” and “what really goes on”. They care about the outcomes.

    And the outcomes are a festering pile of half-truths sculpted to meet a pre-defined narrative.

    If I open up any news site anywhere in the world and read what it has to say on subjects I know something about, it takes little to no time to start racking up a large count of egregious errors of fact. And note here: errors of fact, not simplifications, etc. Outright incorrect information.

    So when I extrapolate my findings in my own areas of expertise into the areas I lack expertise in, I have zero confidence that what I’m being told is correct or truthful.

    So it doesn’t matter how things work. It doesn’t matter what really goes on. Whatever goes on and however it works, the output is factually incorrect and narrative-furthering. Apparently being “one of the most self-critical professions there is” isn’t helping.

    Time to change how things work and what goes on, no?
