Among psychologists something like this known as the "illusion of truth" effect. Here's how a typical experiment on the effect works: participants rate how true trivia items are, things like "A prune is a dried plum". Sometimes these items are true (like that one), but sometimes participants see a parallel version which isn't true (something like "A date is a dried plum"). After a break – of minutes or even weeks – the participants do the procedure again, but this time some of the items they rate are new, and some they saw before in the first phase.
Self-Pity of the Defeated & ‘Lies Agreed Upon’: The Lost Cause and Memory of the American Civil War. The Revisionist Narrative of the North Carolina Museum of History, Raleigh – The Everywhereist. Late last year, Rand and I visited Raleigh, North Carolina, and after reading glowing online reviews for it, I spent an afternoon at the North Carolina Museum of History.
I was appalled by it. I’ve heard of revisionist historians, of people who claim the Civil War was about something other than slavery, but I figured they lurked in shadowy corners and hid their true intentions, the way cartoon villains did. I didn’t think they would openly proclaim their ignorance and bigotry proudly. I certainly didn’t think they’d be curating museums. What's the best, most effective way to take notes? If it feels like you forget new information almost as quickly as you hear it, even if you write it down, that’s because we tend to lose almost 40% of new information within the first 24 hours of first reading or hearing it.
If we take notes effectively, however, we can retain and retrieve almost 100% of the information we receive. Learning how to retain information. Umberto Eco’s Antilibrary: Why Unread Books Are More Valuable to Our Lives than Read Ones. By Maria Popova How to become an “antischolar” in a culture that treats knowledge as “an ornament that allows us to rise in the pecking order.”
“It is our knowledge — the things we are sure of — that makes the world go wrong and keeps us from seeing and learning,” Lincoln Steffens wrote in his beautiful 1925 essay. Piercingly true as this may be, we’ve known at least since Plato’s famous Allegory of the Cave that “most people are not just comfortable in their ignorance, but hostile to anyone who points it out.”.
Work and Pleasure: Theodor Adorno on the Psychology of “Gadgeteering” and How the Cult of Efficiency Limits Our Happiness. By Maria Popova “One is forced to have fun in order to be well adjusted or at least appear so to others because only well-adjusted people are accepted as normal and are likely to be successful.”
Few thinkers have advanced our understanding of the machinery we call popular culture more than the great German sociologist, philosopher, musicologist, and media critic Theodor Adorno (September 11, 1903–August 6, 1969). Donald Hall on Growing Old and Our Cultural Attitude Toward the Elderly. “For old people,” Ursula K.
Le Guin wrote in contemplating aging and the substance of our personhood, “beauty doesn’t come free with the hormones, the way it does for the young… It has to do with who the person is.” Life, Meghan Daum has written, “is mostly an exercise in being something other than what we used to be while remaining fundamentally — and sometimes maddeningly — who we are.” The day Joe Rogan discovered the real Stefan Molyneux.
Hey there!
Pull up a chair. Today’s Quickie! Is a fun little story about boring old stuff like ethics and character. It starts, as usual, with the men we know as Stefan Molyneux. Men? Stefan Molyneux. Stefan Molyneux.
Stefan Molyneux (born 1966) is an Irish-Canadian political activist, amateur philosopher and and YouTube personality. Since 2005, he is the host of Freedomain Radio,[2] a bastardization of FDR's initials podcast where he discusses philosophy, libertarianism, anarcho-capitalism, atheism, science and relationships. He also regularly writes for right-wing libertarian websites and has (self)published several books.
Molyneux has a group of very ardent fans, even though he is only questionably an ancap at this point, and is hated by a large portion of them: He defends cops, is a "racial realist", says weird red pill things about women, and is a hawk on mideast relations. He has declared himself "the savior of philosophy" and styles himself as a New Socrates,[3][4] but doesn't actually make much of an effort to engage any scholarly literature on issues of philosophy.

Psychological Manipulation is a type of influence that attempts to change the behavior or perception of others through underhanded, deceptive and abusive techniques. This advances the interests of the manipulator, generally at the victim's expense, in methods that may be considered abusive, devious, deceptive, and exploitative. In order to be successful, the art of manipulation involves two things - concealing aggressive or subversive intentions and behaviors while knowing the psychological vulnerabilities of the victim well enough to know what will be the most effective psychological weapons or tactics to be used against them.
This is most often accomplished through covert-aggression or carefully veiled aggression - which may be so subtle that it's not easily detected. Psychological Manipulators know what they want and fight hard to get it. Has the internet killed local music scenes? Once upon a time, sounds were attached to places.

Vintage Anti-Suffrage Postcards - Sociological Images. A while back, David Dismore posted about his archive of suffragist postcards, which appeared in the early 1900s as part of the campaign for women’s right to vote. The postcards got the messages of the movement across in short, clear, and often humorous ways. Those opposed to women’s suffrage also used postcards to get their message out to the public.
