A timely offering and interesting from several angles. Well written in an assertive style, accurate within a… reasonably… wide span of focus and certainly not the first time this concept has been seen (although the descriptive verbiage wasn’t at all the same). Well worth a reading. Equally, well worth a reading to examine what must reside between the lines as the… how did Mirei put it?… cultural context motivating her(?) conditionally accurate assertions.
FAE is a good acronym, I’ll use it to point out that it is very possible and just as likely for people to be trapped in a set of FAE generated conclusions concerning collective entities as individual nodes within a collective entity. Or, in more conventional terms, FAE impacts “the blame game” concerning cultures just as much individual people, a very unpopular factoid no one of the political persuasion, including and especially the American fauxLiberal nor the American psuedoConservative, likes to be reminded of.
So, the assertion I’ll put forward is this: where FAE is a very real thing (long proven in my mind from the same concept used in the applied field of management theory) it is very much a case of the quite accurate concept of FAE being misused in support of a politically motivated raging case of confirmation bias.
And yes, I’m offering to defend what I assert. Any takers?
Oh, and in postscript? Niiice color choice on the lead photo associated to the title… the guns are not red and blue (partisan), not camo/black or polished chrome (combat or pimp)… nothing already tagged to an emotional context in those instant assumptions the media folk count on when they’re trying to attract your attention… which means whoever chose that set of colors just might be a genuine propaganda master… as would be indicated by the title of “PhD” behind Mirie’s full name.
