Recent political earthquakes like the Brexit vote and the election of Donald Trump to the US presidency reveal painful divides in democratic societies. How did this happen? Human-empathy researcher Tobias Rose-Stockwell outlines how current news consumption patterns amplify and exacerbate divisions in society. He examines how social media tools can help promote consensus and empathy instead. getAbstract recommends this essay to all citizens concerned about the state of political discourse and seeking practical ways to help improve it.
