I looked at comments of articles yes. I didn’t have to. However, my intention was to get an understanding of how we are where are right now as a society according to the news and social media. I apologize for distracting the discussion but hate was brought up. The hate people are feeling because of incidents like the original post is prevalent online. I guess i am trying to understand it but not making any progress. I understand protest and free speech and why that is occurring right now.
I’ll leave this thread, reset, and try to understand more. All i can do.
my difficulty with your position as stated here goes back to your disdain for 'data' and 'statistics' with no real grounding nor explanation. It was all generalized commentary that offered nothing specific about what you were talking about. And then it became the same exact thing with this 'hate'
If you want to understand more, then dismissing 'data' out of hand seems counter productive. And engaging with 'hate' through nola.com or FB or chron.com comments is to focus on a virtual cesspool. Again, that seems an ill choice to find 'understanding.'
I don't know how anyone can expect to find understanding using those sources.
You're seeing the worst because you're looking in the worst places. And if those are the same places where you are seeing the poor, irresponsible, partisan use of "data" and "statistics" then your skepticism regarding them is clearer.
My point is you're going about 'understanding' in a really unwise way.
