Are we like to select those info. that we like, and neglect those info. that we dislike?
to have a more strong argument.
info. is a short term for information, which is a collection of all the things that we are able to understand, like news, opinions, facts, definitions.
"like" means, matching our mind-set. i cannot really solidify this concept. but i can provide some examples for "like". Chinese governors like to read good news for communism. American people like freedom and dislike dictatorship.
in the internet, or in the library, or in the sea of info., there are a lot info. that we can obtain. Do we have a better understanding, better memorization on those info that we like? and the more importantly, are we getting blinded when facing those info that we dislike, we afraid of?
if we change the info. to be foods, we of course like those foods that we like (<- very silly sentence:P) , and making us eat them more. and it also help our digestion system. this feed back mechanism will make us polarized. for eating balanced and healthy foods, that is not a big deal to be come polarized. however, for those people only like junk food, or unbalanced meals, the disadvantage is losing nutrition, becoming unhealthy. By the way, it can be known by checking our body healthy. to known whether we are polarized.
how about the mental food? i believe same thing happen. we have certain world-view in our mind, like fair, justice, open. i don't know others, but for me-self, when i read some articles that is opposing those value. i will automatically look other articles. like those published by Chinese government. one very significant thing happen is that, when i read a article that pin-pointed my disadvantage, i will escape from it. am i polarized??
so, i presumed, everyone has some degree of polarization. that's why there are many argument for people. Thus, to solve the conflict, people should learn how to de-polarized, or become multi-polarized. if you is a little guy in the society, just facing few people, you may not need to be mutli-polarized. but for people who always deal will others, to overcome the dis-likeness is the key to solving problem, by knowing the thing that we don't know and we even don't want to know.
In political science, a leadership has few elements, one of them is palpability. a very simply explanation is "see the unseen, know the unknown, and complete the impossible.", another expression is "notice the thing that you(most) did not notice, and conduct any necessary measurements" the idea can be a summery for this article.
