Neo-Obscurantism Unmasked

Countermeasures

This page lists a series of information strategies to counter the spread of Neo-Obscurantism.


Rationalism

(work in progress...)

Always explicitly place reason and logic as the central guiding principles of any activity.


Competence

(work in progress...)

Never engage in a discussion before having formed a solid competence about the issue at hand through an in-depth personal research.


Compartimentalization

(work in progress...)

When arguing with outsiders, always keep the various subjects of debate strictly separated. Only argue about 1 subject at a time.


Moderation

(work in progress...)

Never assume an arrogant and/or antagonizing attitude (unless blatantly provoked) towards outsiders; always present yourself as a friend and an ally.


Sensibilization

(work in progress...)

Do not refrain from stimulating the audience's emotivity (but only as long as this does not detract from the intrinsic validity of your arguments).


Gatekeeping

(work in progress...)

Systematically avoid associating yourself with people, groups or ideologies that might damage your reputation.


Projects

Memes

(work in progress...)

A collection of infographs, memes and flyers designed in order to spread awareness about the dangers of Neo-Obscurantism.

Internet forum

(work in progress...)

A project for an ideal internet forum designed to guarantee the highest possible freedom of speech and information exchange.
