Too Long; Didn't Read
We live in a world where people get paid to spread truths and lies. We’ve at least heard of the term propaganda, and by now, we’ve all been exposed to propagandist regimes: the most obvious example stems from our global political climate, since by nature, politicians love spreading lies. The duality between truth and lies and right and wrong is at the heart of politics and information. And it’s this duality that incentivizes powerful people to uphold or destroy the values of society that preserve truthfulness. If people care about the truth so much (which I hope enough of us do), how can we enforce the necessary qualities in the information we consume?
