Confronting Sophistry is a video series about critical thinking, self-education and deconstructing the techniques of those who seek to control our mental processes.
Problem #1: People are in a rush to form their opinions.
Problem #2: People are unwilling to let go of their opinions, even when faced with large quantities of contradictory evidence.
In this episode, host and producer Jeff DeRiso talks about these 2 problems with our decision-making processes that perpetuate negative forces within society. He also talks about the practice of Sophistry and why he decided to create this series.
