DontFeedTheHandThatBitesYou on Nostr: All media is biased. Either intentionally or subconsciously. Practically impossible ...
All media is biased. Either intentionally or subconsciously.
Practically impossible these days to avoid it - need to be very aggressive/careful with sources of information & cross reference to validate - then make up your own mind. i.e. actually think for yourself.
This is too much effort for some so they welcome being given "answers"/opinions they can parrot. This is a common human trait and something present on NOSTR - decentralising the tech does not fix this.
Criticising owned rags like the BBC, WSJ, WP, etc etc is too easy - like shooting fish in a barrel. They should never be taken seriously or even acknowledged.
What NOSTR can offer is uncensored content, but you still need to think and make up your own mind - it doesn't remove bias or untruth just because its posted here.
More interested to hear peoples thoughts on this and how it can be solved?
