    Opinions are absolutely subjective, but the content they’re based on is also skewed.

    If all of the news you consumed was curated through an engagement algorithm, it would change the way you see the world. Your opinions would be based on that perception.

      Now you’re just describing human perception. That’s not really remarkable. And, still, there’s a lot more to it, such as the sum total of experiences a person has.

      I still think this concept is being oversimplified quite a bit.
