@justrojie asks “Are we more informed than ever or more overwhelmed? Or both?”
I was originally going to say both, but I think I am going to go with my gut and say I’m overwhelmed.
The information out there isn’t “informing.” It’s crap. Most of it is crap. It isn’t journalism. It’s who can get the “information” out there first whether it has been fact checked or not. THEN, they fact check it after they’ve already circulated it.
The “information” out there is biased. No one reports objectively anymore. You have to wade through crap to find actual facts.
Don’t get me started on social media and influencers and the crap they circulate.
And now, we have AI to navigate.
Yep, overwhelmed. Not informed. Overwhelmed.
