Bellyak Bodyboarding

If you haven't yet, watch The Social Dilemma.

Now, it's not unimpeachable. In fact, it's problematic in a host of fairly major ways. That's because, as I've written about before, ANY Netflix documentary is an unreliable source of "truth".

You see, documentaries are typically designed to make a particular argument. One the filmmaker -- as a biased, flawed, only partially informed person (like the rest of us) -- believes.

This means they skew toward telling stories about, and collecting interviews with, folks who agree with the filmmaker's perspective.⁣

This film is no exception.⁣⁠

(There is not even one, fully fleshed out, dissenting point of view in the full 90 minutes. That's a problem.)⁣⁠

But you should watch it anyway.

Because, even in its flaws, it does capture something important. Something you need to hear and experience.⁣⁠

Then, immediately after you finish and you're awash in discomfort, google "the social dilemma criticism" and find articles by believable writers who disagree with some of the ideas in the movie.⁣⁠

BTW, that's not just a suggestion for this movie. It's a best practice good thinkers do across the board. I call it "Google The Opposite" and it's your ONLY CHANCE at reducing bias + steering clear of the problems of polarization, partisanship, and tribalism outlined in the movie.⁣

The Social Dilemma is (and should be) a wake-up call for everyone alive right now. But good thinking demands that we probe for exactly why.

Honestly, watch it.

Money can't buy you happiness. But it can buy you a bellyak. And that's close enough 🐶
