Because once trust is decoupled from verification, it becomes transferable.

And not everyone who claims authority deserves it.

I think schools need to start teaching Critical Thinking. As it is not, it’s mostly memorizing and math. Clearly the majority of our US citizens don’t know how to think. #CriticalThinking

Ancient astronaut theorists in general like to claim the Book of Enoch describes genetic experiments.

But if you read it, it actually doesn't. What happens is some rebellious angels decide to do the horizontal tango with some human women.

That's a pretty big difference!

We gotta be careful not to take assertions for granted.

For example, New Age starseed proponents claim their beliefs are spoken of in numerous ancient myths and traditions.

But look into them for yourself and see what they really say, and there's no such thing.
#CriticalThinking

Newsflash: just because you don't understand something doesn't mean it's fake - maybe you just need to learn more about it!

The real divide isn’t access to information anymore.
It’s the ability to interpret it.

That’s where power is shifting.

Rob McConnell Interviews - BENJAMIN RADFORD - Skeptic, and Realist In a world filled with extraordinary claims, how do we separate fact from fiction? In this engaging and thought-provoking episode, Benjamin Radford—investigator, skeptic, and realist—brings a rational, evidence-based perspective to the discussion of the paranormal and unexplained. Drawing from years of research into mysteries ranging from UFO sightings to ghost stories and urban legends, Radford explores how critical thinking, scientific methodology, and careful analysis can help uncover the truth behind claims that often capture the public imagination. He discusses common misconceptions, the role of perception and bias, and why some stories persist despite a lack of verifiable evidence. This episode invites listeners to question not just the phenomena themselves, but the way we interpret and evaluate information. What makes something believable? How do cognitive biases influence what we think we see or experience? And can skepticism and open-mindedness coexist in the search for truth? Join us for a compelling conversation that challenges assumptions, encourages curiosity grounded in reason, and offers a balanced approach to understanding the unknown—where asking the right questions may be just as important as finding the answers.

Situational Design theory is not so much "theory", it's happening right now...

#CriticalThinking & thinking for yourself is the enemy of fascism ( #truth, #facts & accurate #information)

Govt doesn't want #Americans having #criticalthinking or think for themselves

Educated Americans who think for themselves, speaking out w/ truth, facts & sharing accurate info is a threat to the fascist agenda

#Parents & #education should teach kids/teens HOW to think critically, NOT what to think

Are you certain? #criticalthinking #psychology #philosophy

Artemis II: Stunning ‘Hello, World’ Image of Earth Explained NASA astronaut Reid Wiseman captured the "Hello, World" image of Earth from Orion on April 2, 2026. The image's unique perspective prompts critical thinking about geography, highlighting Earth's scale and human impact. Educators are encouraged to use the photo as a teaching tool, fostering discussions on Earth's condition and visual interpretation.

Some timely thoughts about #ArtemisII stunning "Hello, World" image before #teachers go back to school after the Spring break and enthusiastically use it with their students. Using this image can be a fantastic stimulus for #geographical and #criticalthinking.

Why are people starting to sound like ChatGPT? Algorithms and AI don't just show us reality — they warp it in ways that benefit platforms built to exploit people for profit, says etymologist Adam Aleksic. From ChatGPT influencing our word choices to Spotify turning a data cluster into a new musical genre, he reveals how new technology subconsciously shapes our language, trends and sense of identity. "These aren't neutral tools," he says, encouraging us to constantly ask ourselves: How am I being influenced?

Return to chess win.

I’m playing #Chess again! Dad 1st taught me & he believed it mattered: strategy, patience, critical thinking, and pattern recognition. It trained me long before ethnography did. Proof that early intellectual seeds often flower later in unexpected disciplines.

Convenience is quietly eroding critical thinking.
When answers come instantly, questioning them feels optional.

That’s where the real risk begins.

🎭 We tolerate messy, complicated characters in our favorite TV shows — but demand simple good-vs-evil binaries in real life. Game of Thrones was compelling *because* the heroes did terrible things and the villains had genuine virtue.
