How Is Teaching a Generation to Spot

archive.ph/LNpan#selection-451

Rambling: I strongly favor the approach of teaching critical thinking and media in contrast to and of and — It’s very important as and of all types to support open (yes, even nonsense, , , etc.) I do realize that and have more of than ever. However, , censoring and is not the answer. (It also inspires defensive resistance and motivates persistence of the deception worth culling.) Once upon a time, public discourse and debate was normal. I’m not sure if it’s that we’re too lazy, too busy, or don’t care. But it seems more today that it’s “Cooler” to erase or selectively ignore things that are uncomfortable. I also realize that people are afraid for the neglected and uneducated children of the world who lack and parental oversight being wrangled into activity. Rather than impose our views and overstep jurisdictional, parenthood, and personal (which are healthy to promote in general) in order to control others, gain false sense of security and ‘save the world’ (which is vainly imperious, imo- but that’s another topic). It better serves the world (in my opinion) to teach critical thinking and how to learn, not just what to learn and whom to trust (which in itself, could suffer from appeal to authority: a fallacy.) Even formal is congested with and rigid near in dogmas. (I, in part, blame this on the modern science distain of - another aside for another day.) I remember when school taught that the tongue had different taste zones as if it were law. My point being that honest is open to correction. There are many things that even thought to be impossible that we know are not. With the tenacity of the internet and the dawn of more powerful , what the world may need more of is a revival of the lost of fearless skepticism.
