You guys don’t create your graphics with code and the monitor facing away from you?
Fingers crossed this somehow breaks up the cult. No idea why these lies hit different than all the other complete 180s.
I don’t forgive the nazis or the americans either

The number of people without access to clean water is unquantifiable! Very interested in their maths

I think the thing it ‘adds’ is some kind of indication of social consensus. I agree it’s harmful to thoughtfulness and to people’s development of individual understanding rather than just parroting (see all of twitter). I do think the semi-anonymous forum style prevents a bit of the soap boxing compared to social media with your name on it, but it’s still clearly present here.
In terms of solutions I don’t have a lot of concrete ideas. I think this phenomenon stems from a broader social shift towards moral absolutism and outsourcing knowledge to experts (where who is trusted as an expert varies dramatically) rather than striving to understand things yourself.
Opinions that go against the grain require patience and suspension of disbelief with your conversation partner—something usually lacking in online discussion. A presumption of good faith (even where no good faith was intended) would go a long way.

In the US doctors have to go in absurd debt but they’re paid a lot to compensate. Insurance companies increasingly dictate what care people get (the doctors have to fight them). Small practices have mostly been closed because they can’t afford admin teams big enough to keep up with the insurance companies and their constantly changing policies. Most practices push for 15 minute appointments.
Kinda curious if BC’s pay rates would be enough to pay down the student debt too.
