Resources for Engaging in Virtuous Conversations
MY LAST ARGUMENT (Don't worry, it's an aspirational goal!)
- If we argue with each other online over issues important to our personal identity, our core personal moral integrity, or one of our reference group loyalties (eg., family, faith, football team 🙂) then one of us will win and one will lose or, more likely, we will both lose.
- There will, however, be a winner.
- The winner is the guy who paid the programmer to write the algorithm so they get more "engagement" (that is, setting us at each other's throat) and more ad revenue.
- And, to add insult to injury, we're spending HOURS writing that guy's machine learning training data FOR FREE!
