thank you Marcus. focusing on strength
I really enjoyed this. Thank you.
Thanks Marcus! This is so important in today's times. Be it in family or for a whole country. This is the best advice that can save our civiliy as we know it.
This is great advice for anyone who WANTS to be a critical thinker. However, so many people go out of their way to be willfully ill-informed. To these people, evidence and data are simply dismissed as fraudulent or fake.
It’s absolutely maddening to those of us who are trying to sift through all the chaff.
Hmmm 🤔 Jonah Lehrer? Amazing how some people are able to bounce back. As for me, I won't read anymore of his books.
I can certainly appreciate the gist of what you are saying in this video and agree, but with one caveat: those with "Expertise" who present faulty Evidence and lie or misrepresent data as being Error-free when it is not, should no longer be viewed as reputable sources of information. Same goes for the institutions that pick and choose which data and experts they are going to support and promote based upon shifting political winds.
You brought up Dr. Atlas specifically and the example of him not being a qualified expert on virology since his background was radiology. While that may be true in a technical sense, he was not called upon for expertise in virology but, rather for his expertise and years of experience in public health policy combined with a medical background to comprehend the daily reports submitted by numerous scientists and researchers, including virologists. The media's disparagement of Dr. Atlas while simultaneously fawning over Dr. Fauci, a man with a long history of questionable ethics and conflicts of interest, mischaracterizes the "experts" we're supposed to give credence. The blatant deception and misinformation that we have witnessed for the past year surrounding SARS-CoV-2, on top of the preceding years of credentialed academic "experts" shown to be polemic shills, is what has largely devalued the public's confidence in Ph.D. advice.
