    Are We Intellectually DOOMED??? S2 EP27

    Are we intellectually doomed to the extent that we cannot critically engage in topics anymore, read for ourselves and form our own opinions, relying on social media and other people to tell us what to think? In this episode we discuss whether we are still a people that read books, listen to informative material like podcasts and watch youtube videos on things with substance or are we now addicted to "trash tv", scandals etc? Do we still have the capability to critically engage with information objectively, keep an open mind and form your own opinion that will be respected even if it goes against the loudest and contrary voice. Who creates the narrative of what is right or wrong? And what makes that the common opinion?
