  • If only we could enact some sort of practice - a doctrine really - where those who choose to engage in the disseminating of information of any sort are duty bound to be impartial and allow for good faith counter arguments. Doesn’t that sound fair?

    There really is actual truth in the world, and opinions are fine too, so long as they’re presented as such. “The ocean has had record high temperatures every day for the past year” is an objective fact. “The oil companies have intentionally hidden the extent of their impact on climate change” is (currently) an opinion that can be debated by people from both sides of the issue if they do so in good faith. As one example.
