We live in an age where any desire for information is obtainable at a moment's notice. Within seconds, possibly minutes, any piece of information can be researched, analyzed, and fact checked. Despite this, many regurgitate incorrect information, hailing it as fact under blind assumption. What help is there for a world that is too proud or lazy to correct itself?
The assumption that correct information may be found easily in an era of increasing levels of non-information and anti-information, and that anyone can sift through that flaming heap of garbage in "seconds or even minutes" is tantamount to pure arrogance and complete ignorance.
