I agree with the with what you're conveying on emotional attachments to believe fake information. It doesn't mean I believe all statistics given or that there is zero truth to some lies .. I also know my realities on certain subjects are biased possibly by disliking certain things going on brought to my attention by The News channel or my conception of what I believe is happening. I also realize on the bigger issues that's statistics can be way off and manipulated by whomever is trying to manipulate. I believe there's more of a chess game going on with the people by the rich people or the ones controlling the country in order to get their narrative through. Or maybe because we all like to have something to bitch about.
I think all of what you said is accurate. Everyone we hear or see on the biggest platforms are there to propel an agenda. Those agendas are not all bad or good or helpful or harmful to us, but if we can avoid their tactics of emotional persuasion it will be a lot easier for us to make that determination in a much more rational way. And that--judging these things without influence--is what will benefit us most. Or, at the least, we can debate them in a more useful way.
