Getting sucked down the rabbit hole: Tribes, filter bubbles, identity fusion, and conspiracy theories

Getting sucked down the rabbit hole: Tribes, filter bubbles, identity fusion, and conspiracy theories Online

Why do so many well-meaning, intelligent people get sucked down the rabbit hole of conspiracy theories? The answer lies our mind's own predispositions and shortcuts to forming our identity and sense of reality and the social media landscape that takes advantage of them. In this talk, we will focus on those predispositions and shortcuts that make us vulnerable to getting sucked down the rabbit hole.
