Research and reflection leading to independent thoughts seems to be increasingly rare.
Society wants talking heads on broadcast news stations to tell us all what to think and believe through biased opinions. Which is leading to bubbles of beliefs.
Conversely, there are no boxes filled with constraining perspectives by open minded, independent thinkers.
All topics and talking points are on a spectrum. Hardly anything is on the extremes. Rather, almost everything is within one or two standard deviations of the mean.
