Gell-Mann Amnesia
This article is cool definitely worth a read. I found it a bit infuriating at times, but I won't elaborate right now. However, I found this quote to be re-shareable.
Michael Crichton coined the term Gell-Mann Amnesia. You read an article in the newspaper, about something you are an expert in and find that the author has no idea what they are talking about. It may be riddled with errors or just squarely misunderstood. You continue turning the pages and read another piece about something you don’t know and trust it completely, forgetting the experience you just had.
