Because you not knowing about a message is not a problem the government should solve.



Is your mind able to distinguish between a problem in general, and a problem that the government should solve?

This is kind of a two part problem: an ability to realize the difference (an ability that seems largely constrained by evolution), and an ability to admit it publically.

I enjoy posing "philosophical" questions like this and observing if interest in the topic vanishes.


Oh, right.

It's a problem because of filter bubbles. That doesn't mean government intervention is appropriate though.
