Ace-Garageguy Posted October 3, 2022 Share Posted October 3, 2022 Hypotheses that aren't proven yet somehow get endlessly repeated as "facts" are one very seriously destructive behavior of mainstream and social media. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
misterNNL Posted October 3, 2022 Share Posted October 3, 2022 Media is evidently focused on "If it bleeds it leads" for endlessly repeating bad news every hour on the hour. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ace-Garageguy Posted October 3, 2022 Share Posted October 3, 2022 Hour after hour of "if it bleeds it leads" has been largely replaced with "if it whines it shines". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ace-Garageguy Posted October 3, 2022 Share Posted October 3, 2022 "Meaning" is becoming more and more in the mind of the beholder, kinda like they used to say about beauty being in the eye, etc.; sadly, when word meanings are changed to accommodate dogma, real communication suffers.

Ace-Garageguy Posted October 3, 2022 Share Posted October 3, 2022 Sources of "expert" information on the internet can be contradictory, and without a well of what used to be called "general knowledge", it can be impossible to tell the bull exhaust from the truth.

Ace-Garageguy Posted October 3, 2022 Share Posted October 3, 2022 Is there only one objective Truth, or is it, as some would have us believe, entirely subjective...a gooey morass dependent on personal perspective and other irrelevancies? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BeakDoc Posted October 3, 2022 Share Posted October 3, 2022 Irrelevancies and personal perspectives are the things that prevent firsthand accounts that may be very well true from being the “truth.” Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ace-Garageguy Posted October 4, 2022 Share Posted October 4, 2022 (edited) "Truth" could once be characterized with examples such as "A is A", or 1+1=2, but there is an ever more vocal group of "thinkers" insisting that a thing is not itself, and that arithmetic and math are not tools representative of (and thereby making possible the reliable manipulation of) reality, but are arbitrary constructs invented by one group to "oppress" another group; how these folks think an airplane flies by relying on arbitrary, meaningless gibberish is quite beyond my powers of imagination.
