1 year agoI mean, I haven’t actually looked it up, but presumably “news” is information brought to you by a reputable source, so you have some confidence in its accuracy.
The concerning part for me is there’s no way tik tok is regulated, or held to any kind of standard. I’m not sure if sources are regularly cited, or confirmed. It feels like gen z / alpha just taking everything at face value, even blatant propaganda, and assuming it as truth because “nobody would just go on the internet and lie”
Genuinely confused by your first statement (in particular effective altruism). What does that have to do with the board?
Not an attack, just actually clueless.
