178: Intellectual Casualties

Talk Back to Me

If we are going to talk about ideological and information warfare, we would be foolish to ignore the intellectual or ideological injuries that a person may receive. On this this show we have talked about moral injuries where a person experiences a situation where they take part in, or are unable to stop an event which directly contradicts their moral system or values. 

In a similar fashion someone becomes an intellectual casualty when their ability to evaluate information has been additionally damaged beyond what they would otherwise be capable. More specifically, when it is that one is deceived by false information, but that their ability to evaluate information and make judgements accordingly is directly injured. 

These take multiple forms, often in the form of slurs and gaslighting, but in this case, if we are going to take it seriously that we are engaging in a conflict that spans from the spiritual, to the ideological, and intellectual, through propaganda, and manipulation, we would want to see the people who are injured, in this sense, healed.

In short, if we are going to use words with meaning, we better mean what we say.
