    But how does including sources make that world? How does it move from point A to point B?

    You haven’t thought of that at all. You’re applying reasoning to positions you hold, not reasoning to reach positions.

      I addressed that very objection at the beginning of the conversation.

      You haven’t thought of that at all. You’re applying reasoning to positions you hold, not reasoning to reach positions.

      That’s particularly hilarious since the comment I’m talking about was from fifteen hours ago.

      I’ve been thinking about media literacy for decades at this point. I’m not naive enough to be certain that this is some foolproof magic bullet, but I think it’ll help, and it’s definitely not going to hurt public discourse.

        No you didn’t.

        think it will help.

        Okay. Talk me through the mechanism. Start with why the problem exists. And do it fast after you read this; prove to both of us that you aren’t reasoning backwards from your conclusion.

          I already talked you through it in the linked comment, and honestly if you don’t get it I don’t think I can make it any simpler.

          In any case, I’m not taking homework from you. I know how I arrived at this conclusion, and you’re free to believe me or not. Have a good night.
