Summary
Chalene addresses the fallout after the Will Smith assault on Chris Rock on the Oscar stage and how so many people feel the need to dissect and have an opinion on it.
But this episode isn't about Pop Culture, it's about the radical shift happening in our society where people are expected to quickly share and publicly declare their position on pretty much everything before having the time to research, fact check or process.
Chalene breaks down the concept of groupthink, how it happens, why it happens and the dangerous conditions it creates. She also talks about the importance of dissent, conflict and independent thinking and how she hopes more people will begin to challenge this very risky trend.
