Was just thinking about when — many years ago — I was in the depths of clinical depression and it occurred to me that it was my brain that literally disliked itself. This is essentially the same organ that at one point in our evolution that named itself “brain”! It kinda made me laugh and weirded me out at the same time 🤣

What we seem to be seeing in these times is lack of healthy debate. I think a healthy debate is the bestt way to get people to shore up their arguments—or expand the framework of their perspectives, expand their field of awareness, and get feedback on their hypotheses, beliefs, and ideology. I also think it's important for the skeptics to have their own voice, and propose the questions that challenge people to really drill down into their own ideas and galvanize their foundation of evidence.

What we see now is an abandonment of meaningful debate, a tendency to dismiss alternative ideas as being unfounded, too radical or not relevant. And we see the tendency to go one step further — which is for people of differing opinions labeling the other side with blanket labels and insults, which does nothing to discredit the other side. It only makes the “discrediting” party seem that much more shallow, uninformed, and weak.

We don’t have to agree with everything out there, but a justifiable debate may make us more inclined to humanize those we are so quick to criticize and judge and condemn.
