Reseña del libro "#Brainwashed: A Handbook for Free-Thinking Citizens in Today's Media Environment (en Inglés)"
The insidious tentacles of micro-brainwashing are threatening the democracy Americans, and other democratic citizens, have taken for granted as their birthright. Propaganda, confirmation bias, and both traditional and social media have plagued our minds with a fog of confusion over blurred facts and their offered alternatives-- making a handbook for those desiring to be free-thinking citizens a necessary manifesto. This handbook provides a timely, quick, easy-to-read explanation of the potential for brainwashing in modern democracies and how to protect ourselves from becoming victims. The book teaches the recognition of propaganda and its power in advertising and politics due to basic human psychological needs. In light of these needs, it discusses herd instinct, or tribalism, and its effect on our free-thinking ability. It explains how confirmation bias works to undermine our ability to recognize facts and use our logic to draw reasonable conclusions. Throughout, the book gives practical advice on how to counter these influences. Information regarding social and traditional media is presented to guide people in protecting themselves against "fake news" and "alternative facts" present in both media types. This book addresses the needs of citizens wishing to participate logically and meaningfully in their country's democracy. A must-read for patriotic citizens everywhere.
