NPR’s CEO Katherine Maher on the truth: “Our reverence for the truth might be a distraction that’s getting in the way of finding common ground and getting things done.” Reposting this because the original poster deleted the video.
I don’t know why Steve McGuire deleted the upload of Katherine Maher’s TED Talk about the “truth.” But I’m glad I saved it.
@stillgray This helps to explain why Wikipedia cannot be taken seriously on any topic within a country mile of current politics.
@stillgray “Propaganda is my truth and so it will be yours”
@stillgray There are not "many different truths". There is THE TRUTH. This is some woke Lefty nonsense.
Katherine Maher + TED = Gobbledegook. Which is what I have come to expect from any TED video that I happen to come across these days. I'm so old I can remember when TED talks were full of actual useful information or curiosity arousing thoughts. Katherine Maher is such an obvious creation. This is not a thinking person. This is a made up person, made to look and respond as the left would view a 'thinking person' today. Which is why most of the country, even Liberals, cannot stand so called 'progressives'. This is a corruption of the very idea of intellectualism. This is anti-intellectualism cloaked as intellectual.
@stillgray Ah yes... Truth: the great enemy of progress. Next, she'll give us the one about making an omelet...
@stillgray She's so pleasant, as she speaks the most vile and foolish things.
