The decline of nuanced thought is not merely a sign of a more frustrating online discourse; it is a problem with real-world implications. A collective narrative driven by a lack of nuance can lead to a refusal to tolerate shades of agreement, causing people to demonize others who largely share their foundational beliefs. When leaders prioritize dramatic, surface-level actions over thoughtful, long-term solutions, it can lead to chaos and a failure to address underlying issues effectively.
