Motives and truth
We live in a culture in which it’s easy for others to profit from our own ignorance.
Unfortunately, we’re also susceptable to succumbing to other people’s ignorance as well.
The question then, isn’t are you paying attention what’s out there? because someone’s opinion is merely a click away.
The question to ask is, who do you subscribe to? and why them?
Acknowleding that people have often have their own motives is the first way to discern between propaganda and truth. Realizing that the people we might otherwise respect and follow, can also be immune to their own faulty logic, is a close second.
