Hoisted from Facebook … what’s the biggest problem with the world today?
First I studied logic, and found out many people don’t know how to construct an argument, and I thought that was the biggest problem.
Then I studied emotion, and found out many people judge arguments to be correct if they make them feel good, and I thought that was the biggest problem.
Then I studied consciousness, and found out many people don’t argue at all, they post-hoc justify preconscious decisions, and then I thought that was the biggest problem.
Then I studied politics, and I realized the biggest problem was my political opponents, because they don’t agree with me!
