Thanks for writing this. While the need for humans to think critically is particularly relevant to the relationship between social media practices and the political landscape, it most deeply resonates with me on personal and professional levels. I spent years of my career struggling with what I had then considered to be the micromanaging tendencies of my supervisors and peers. But when I began to welcome criticism, the ensuing conversations about what wasn't working improved my abilities, without diminishing my self-esteem. Those conversations allowed me to come to terms with and accept my imperfection, while resolving to do better.
