Ignorance is bliss. And it can also be funny.
But it can also be extremely dangerous.
We need to know what the basic facts about the world actually are. Otherwise, how do we know when some new piece of information is important.
We need to make sure that we have accurate, up to date information.
We need to agree on the facts. We can’t have political discussion descending into whether my statistics are more accurate than yours.
Statistics should be … statistics.
