The Polymath Show #4 - Technology & a divided world
Over the past few months or maybe in the last year I've noticed (or felt) that people (society), in general, seem to have very divided and strong opinions on everything. In this episode I've tried to understand or reason why this is happening.  Do you guys agree or disagree with my reasoning? If you don't I'd love to hear from you.
