Hey, Mr. analyst, read this

"of the information and news that come your way, pass along only those that wouldn't matter if they are false."

Small small everyone is now a politician. Anyone is a public analyst. Anybody with access to internet now has the opportunity to become judge, jury and authority over affairs of people, events, locations for which he neither know, visited nor endowed with wisdom to comprehend. He can also be historian of repute if he gets his tales far enough.

As long as the information come from popular commentator(s) who himself belongs to the same class as above, there is no point in performing due diligent on information coming our ways. We become experts as soon as we regurgitate the information from "reliable sources" and repackage as incontrovertible truth.

If you ever wonder why there is so much confusion in the land, try assess your own roles in the confusion. You may not have power over what people spread.. Take advice on this unknown writer: "of the information and news that come your way, pass along only those that wouldn't matter if they are false."
