To me, this site addresses one area of our common knowledge where generally the media has really let down the collective good.

More and more, we live in a reality which is finely crafted to hold our interest and to live up to and satisfy all of our preconceptions. More and more, I meet young people whose fundamental outlook on the world is distorted by such forces. True reality is much subtler than we are, and has a habit of breaking with our preconceptions.

Most of the training we receive accidentally online caries the underlying message that we should just go along with the majority or be quiet and not speak up.
