"...it's very hard to change people's minds."
Tim Minchin on confirmation bias, the science behind why we are becoming more divided, why progressives need to learn that it is improbable that the path to more empathy will be paved with less empathy, and why it's so fucking hard to change people's minds.
We welcome thoughtful disagreement. But we do (ir)regularly moderate comments -- and we *will* delete any with insulting or abusive language. Or if they're just inane or off topic. It’s okay to disagree, but pretend you’re having a drink in the living room with the person you’re disagreeing with. This includes me. PS: Have the honesty and courage to use your real name. That gives added weight to any opinion.
