When people can see transparently that the preferences of each age bracket in each district about each brand of vaccine, there's really no point for the anti-vax fight. People instead compete about which brand is better. I got all four brands just to make a point. But the point here is that radical transparency writes the air instead of just people reading the air. It's a Japanese expression where people individually read the air trying to guess what other people think. But actually, with radical transparency, you can write the air to make common knowledge so that people all know what's going on. And then in that environment, people actually feel more secure because we have cognitive security that not only I know this is happening, I also know that you know this is happening as opposed to a culture of secrecy, which leaves people second guessing each other and they all suffer from cognitive insecurity. Like, is this actually happening? And this actually is very toxic to democracy If we cannot even agree what's actually happening, how can we do sense-making and make decisions together?
