I was thinking about this tweet. I was thinking about the author's lack of self-awareness.
Here's a good thought exercise I thought of years ago to help with such things.
Take a basic sentence, like "Even so called “enlightened” people are not immune to brainwashing coz of the principle of “Garbage In, Garbage Out."
And do a Mad-Libs on it, changing verb tense as needed, or adding or deleting words for better meaning/context/etc. For example, "Even so called I am not immune to brainwashing coz of the principle of “Garbage In, Garbage Out."
And I probably am not. Human beings are susceptible to being drawn into crowds, either physically or mentally or both.
It's an important exercise. More people should know of it, and use it.
