How often do people get critical of someone delivering a passionate speech, especially if they are not a man. Many people argue that emotion is the enemy against truth, especially on the internet.

I love the idea of comparing critical ignoring to an animal. It made me think of my cat, where I can say his name, his ear flicks, but he just ignores me because he has something “better” to pay attention to. I guess we should take inspiration from our little pets, because they do seem quite happy.

I loved how they ended the book on the “not caring” chapter. That added part about information consuming attention really struck a chord with me. It ties the purpose of the whole book together and also reveals to you that everyone is competing for your attention, and you must be mindful of where you put your attention. The added note about fact checking AI’s fact checking is also hilarious. It really can be a 2 steps forward 1 step back, or 1 step forwards 3 steps back kind of thing, and you really won’t know until you fact check it and see.
