Added 2019-06-08 05:00:01 +0000 UTCWhy is our political discourse so divisive? How much of it is technology's fault? and Who needs to step up and fix it? Tom talks with Yaël Eisenstat, a policy adviser at the Center for Humane Technology about all these questions.

I also agree that the problem is systemic, so it's not really "tech's" social disruptions as such, but rather society's recent downward trend to disruption, and tech's role in it.

A lot of people will place the blame or responsibility solely on one of these groups (with "free market" often being a rhetorical substitute for consumers).
