RE: How Social Media's Predictive Algorithms Are Perpetuating Division Among The People

This is a great post. I agree with you 100%. Steemit is very interesting because we are forced to look at stuff that doesn't fit in with our world view. I think that's why there's so much conflict. I would assert that only through clashes can we truly learn anything new about others and ourselves. But one has to achieve a certain level of maturity to recognize and admit when one is wrong. The ego when allowed to roam unchallenged, is dangerous.

Yes. Very well said. I too consider the ego to be an obstacle to progress in a great number of ways, especially when it comes to communicating efficiently with others. I feel we could all benefit from a healthy dose of humility.

The next article of this type that I planned to do was actually one pertaining to the ego, so I find it interesting that you touched on it here.

Thanks a lot for the insightful comment.
