Over Three Decades, Tech Obliterated Media
"Most techies now dabbling in the media are arrogant amateurs who think that because they excel in one area, they are masters of all domains. What they really are is incompetent at giving any insight or illumination beyond their own narrow self-interests while decidedly cheapening discourse."
"Most Techies" ? Hell, almost everyone I know thinks they know more than the experts in any field. It really doesn't matter what you're talking about, Bubba down at the bar or Karen at the grocery knows more than those "stinkin' experts".
It's been like that forever but has just exploded since social media connected all of us.
I'm not sure democracy can survive it.
Also, conservatives seem to be a little worse than most.
more conservative false stories go viral.
