Ep 106 The problem with smart people on social media
About this episode
Welcome to the Show, in this episode I’m asking you to step into the classroom of LB, and we’re going to draw out some schemas I worked up to describe a problem I see with social media, especially as it relates to people who are “smarter.” This has been something I’ve mulled over for a bit, and frankly this new annoying term “woke right” has brought it back to the top of my mind. Before I finish my two part series of James Lindsay vs St Michael the archangel (tentatively entitled James Lindsay vs the right) I just wanted us to spend a little time talking about this problem I see in social media interactions, which then leads me to explaining the problem with disaffected Liberals on the right and Liberalism writ large as I’ve come to see it. I hope you enjoy it, if you could share this with someone who would enjoy it that would make me almost as happy as having you hit that like button and subscribing at beenawake.com
