A quick reminder to check your sources of information, and a big disclaimer for an incoming rant
A friend of mine just came along with a youtube video talking 2023 power management in Germany and the video was far beyond conspiracy and resonated too heavily.
A key competency should be to check sources for relevance by questioning the presentation style:
- Wording preset to inflict fear and insecurity
- Wording preset to stimulate a conflict (we against the others)
- Author profits, e.g. by promoting his store/hardware
- Author evades naming further sources
- Author use portions of statistic / single sources to “proof” his point
If all that checks, oh boy. Maybe the source is not as independent, philanthropic or enlightened as you thought it would be. Especially the point with the sources is something I come along in many discussions lately…
