== Who is to fault? == | |||
We should not point fingers, the majority of people not seeing the crisis is not an individuals fault, its just that the human brain has specific heuristics which make objecvtive observation difficult. in this example, when facts contradict self interest the brain obfuscates. Another example is confirmation bias, when people are so gung hoe in making judgements they tend only to see the reinforcing information (which is also perpetuated by our new media algorithms). | |||
