Great insights :) $ Man....

While I take all of your points, it got me thinking...why does the 24 hour news cycle, as well as my social media feed and just about everybody/everything else vying to conquer my economy of attention rely on hyperbole? Is that the problem in and of itself? The race to the bottom (of my brainstem) has no time for nuance?

This troubles me because not only is there no immediate cure I can conceive, but the problem may only get worse as technology and information become even more pervasive and integrated.

Fun chat...you shaded my view on this in a new way, for which I thank you. I hope you feel good about providing that experience to somebody.
