RE: Distorted information

in Silver Bloggers8 months ago

Good afternoon, dear @irvinc!!

How true your words are. In a world where there is so much information, it's often difficult to distinguish between what's happening and what people say is happening.

However, this era of social media and overexposure requires work on the part of users of that information, which consists of verifying the sources and the veracity of the information, which is often not an easy task.

There's a saying that goes "sow doubt and something will stick." This saying is very applicable in these times and, as I said, requires a great effort on our part.

In my opinion, information has become a weapon that can generate a lot of confusion and can change the minds of people who don't bother to read, educate themselves, and analyze what's happening.

Not to mention our older adults, who sometimes tend to believe what they hear, often generating worries that can cause them some anguish.

Your writings are always very interesting!!

Big hug!


Muy buenas tardes querido @irvinc !!

Cuanta verdad en tus palabras. En un mundo donde hay una cantidad de información muchas veces es complicado distinguir entre lo que sucede y lo que dicen que sucede.

Si bien esta era de redes sociales y sobre exposición requiere de un trabajo por parte de los usuarios de esa información que consiste en verificar las fuentes y la veracidad de la misma, lo cual muchas veces no es una tarea sencilla.

Hay un dicho que dice "siembra la duda y algo quedará". Este dicho es muy aplicable en los tiempos que corren y como dije requiere de un gran esfuerzo de nuestra parte.

Según mi manera de ver la información se ha vuelto en un arma que puede generar mucha confusión y que puede hacer cambiar de parecer a personas que no se preocupan por leer, por instruirse y analizar lo que suceden.

Ni hablar con nuestros adultos mayores que en ocasiones suelen creer lo que oyen, generando muchas veces preocupaciones que les puede llegar a causar cierta angustia.

Siempre muy interesantes tus escritos!!

Abrazo grande!

thanks for the support!!

I'm glad you liked the publication. For older adults the cell phone solves a lot of problems for them, they can easily communicate with family members, but they don't know how to deal with misinformation and that can cause them a lot of distress.

Thanks for stopping by and commenting dear @pablo1601. A big hug from Maracay.

Fortunately, many older adults have people like you who guide them and help them distinguish truth from rumors!

Big hug!
