We live in a post evidence world
1 comments

Very interesting comment! Any ideas on what are we supposed to do in this world? I keep on thinking we need to take a step back, come back to evidence and logic and make things right. But deep inside I know that's not going to happen. In the post-evidence world, it's too easy for people without moral to grab power and benefit. That is, it makes it easier for those in power to grab more power. That's why things will remain the same for a while.

Is the solution to simply smile and carry on? Is it time for a (non-violent) revolution?

All we can do is call it out and fight back by being skeptical and asking for evidence. Hopefully we’ll prevail
