This article reads like a single sound bite.
I agree that the internet and social media can act as a catalyst to celebrate confirmation bias.
But I also think we have to be mindful beyond just confirmation bias and include conformity bias and halo effect.
In fact, you could probably add another 5-10 common human biases to the list, but Zipf’s Law would help narrow down which ones to focus on.
My personal feeling as an observer of human behaviour and the parent of teens is that we need to specifically educate ourselves with an emphasis on common biases.
Bias innoculation thru education perhaps?
