> "And dis-information is more engaging (people argue about it) than straight facts." Odd statement. People generally don't enter a discussion with the intention of "engaging with disinformation". They are intending to engage in discussion. Sometimes facts are agreed, with contested implications; other times contested facts and exchange of evidence informing those facts. > "The sites are not tailored towards factual information." Tailored? See, we could right now engage in a discussion about "fact tailors" and whether they exist. And if they do exist, is the art of tailoring not about adjusting presentation in a manner that suppresses unsightly truth so the end result looks good? > I rarely bother with correcting people. In other words, you're denying those people the opportunity to be corrected by you! |
