In this episode of Rowing with the Homies, I dive into the deeply complex and heavy topic of how we decide what's true and how we attribute blame in a world that feels increasingly polarized, exploring the dangerous divide between evidence-based decision-making and the use of events to simply confirm pre-existing political or cultural narratives. I unpack how this pattern erodes the foundations of a shared reality in discussions around major issues like immigration and climate change, and how it fosters the systemic defunding of organizations like the CDC and scientific research. I discuss the broader societal impact of this shift, including the decline of trust in public institutions and the rise of toxic online communities that foster ideological disengagement and nihilism. Finally, I offer a multi-pronged approach for moving forward, focusing on intentional dialogue and information hygiene, before closing out in the final segment, Today Depression Feels Like, by reframing the struggle with mental health as an essential act of trusting the truth of your own experience to find your internal compass in a chaotic world.
