Great question, ha ha! You will have to read some of the articles on my blog to completely understand. If you do understand, it will completely change your world view. I guess what I want is for people to see the futility of debate in a world I see dominated by what I call, individual intelligence. I gave up on politics and public debate. Instead I want to focus on the root of the problem and that is our total butchery of human logic in our day to day relations and dialog. Doing this means looking into a future of a collective intelligence. The idea is that for truth (logic) to prosper we must change the playing field or the environment in which it is expressed. Krazyuncle had some great comments here. Will his comments be relevant, front and center a month from now? Were they productive? Were they Integrated into our perceptions of truth? No humans just squabble until they’ve had enough and then they kill each other. I just want to make a better wheel. Here is a snippet of something I typed in a reply earlier today that might help. I hope you will spend 10 minutes on my blog though: ” I believe there are “reasons” why we believe what we do. That word reason points to logic. For me human logic is really the door and technology is the key. The real issue for humanity I see is that until now we subsisted as individuals. That’s was normal evolution. 1. If you wanted to share the logic of your ideas you put it in print. Print stacks up, gets dusty and becomes yesterdays news. Technology solves this. Our Questions would be a work in progress, always available, always open for revision for perpetuity. 2. A big issue is individual power. If you consider the entirety of human logic within the whole of the human race, you will see that no individual possess it all, just a portion. That individual may possess great power or authority though. This power I believe competes with the expression of human logic. Technology would solve this, if; a. anonymity was the guise of everyone within the system (whatever that would be) b. Human logic was the moderator. What this all comes down to is the ability of humanity to form together more solid and logical viewpoints and to arrive at insight any one individual may miss, honestly or dishonestly. It could be about anything, what roof to put on your house. A Collective Intelligence as I see it would be what you mentioned earlier about the insightful dialog just greater. I often characterize it as a sort of Artificial intelligence.”

Our group is a voluntary decentralized human collective intelligence ;)
What you have to understand is that the world of human intellect is broken. Human logic is fractured and disfunctioinal. This is hard for people to see because they were born Into this world. They can’t understand because it has always been this way. I believe that is why societal norms and support are so important. They serve a need. So when you battle the other side they are not really going to hear you as long as they feel part of a group. They will reject the message because of the messenger. You have to build a Death Star, a good Death Star. An intelligence formed of humanity. Authoritative because it is totally unbiased 100% and it utilized human logic efficienttly as a moderator between perspectives and viewpoints. It will be a black hole for hate and lies. I thought throwing in "Death star" and "Black hole" might get the young guys on board
I wouldn't say fractured, but very warped right now, because of unscrupulous people trying to change the wheel.
The real problem is that people cannot see the logical conditions because the ability to do so has been monkeyed with. 200 years ago they didn't have the problem of seeing the logical conditions as we do now.
This is why the truth is important, because if we are to get to the point where we can use reason, we first must have that ability that allows us to see the logic. After all logic is the condition you find things in and reason is what happens when you change those conditions.
What we are seeing in the world of logic and reason is a direct result of the inability to see clearly the conditions, which means that there is no reason that can be based on what you cannot see.
