Social media often repeats information we already agree with. It notices what we respond to and then shows us similar content. This can be useful when looking for products or services, but it can also make it harder to see different viewpoints or check whether something is accurate.

Language can be used in ways that distract, oversimplify, or create misunderstandings. One way to explore this is through our series on logical fallacies. These short videos introduce common patterns of faulty reasoning. You can also try our free critical thinking prototype to explore survivorship bias.
