Too much noise for nothing

Have you ever listen to politicians? Every speech of the opposition is about how disastrous the ruling government is.

And the opposite, every speech of the government is how they are amazing.

This is called noise. It is meant for the uneducated voters who are driven by emotions.

But as in Being wrong you understand that for their voters the risk of being wrong is low.

But how about the people with status? They risk way more. They will carefully adjust their opinion on-line.

And this is the way to reduce the noise. Find people with status you trust and see how will they react to the political news in your government or inside of your organization.
