We live in an age of misinformation, but it’s not always on purpose. Sometimes we hear things or come to conclusions that end up becoming fact in our heads. Other times it can be malicious with intent to deceive or subvert. Sometimes it’s in the middle.
Where do you draw the line with regards to people being wrong about things and feeling compelled to correct or respond to their wrongness?
Am I wrong?
Totally agree. Humans are imperfect and everyone has their blind spots/weaknesses. If you can listen and hear when someone corrects you and learn it - truly internalize the new information being presented to you and allow it to reshape your worldview - what more could you ask for than that? It annoys me to no end when someone is so stubborn that they can’t admit they were wrong or mis/under informed, like when their ego is so fragile they can never admit any shortcoming they possess.
