Zohnerism Syndrome - a notorious concept that affects us everyday

Why we need to Avoid watching too much of breaking news & panel discussions on Indian TV news channels now a  days!? Because, they all follow Zohnerism!!!

What is this notorious concept of Zohnerism?

 Zohnerism - is all about twisting of simple facts to confuse people!

In 1997, 14-year-old Nathan Zohner presented his science fair project to his classmates, seeking to ban a highly toxic chemical from its everyday use.

The chemical in question? Dihydrogen monoxide.

Throughout his presentation, Zohner provided his audience scientifically correct evidence as to why this chemical should be banned.

He explained that dihydrogen monoxide:
  • Causes severe burns while it's in gas form.
  • Corrodes and rusts metal.
  • Kills countless amounts of people annually.
  • Is commonly found in tumors, acid rain etc.
  • Causes excessive urination and bloating if consumed.
  • Zohner also noted that the chemical is able to kill you if you depend on it and then experience an extended withdrawal.

He then asked his classmates if they actually wanted to ban dihydrogen monoxide.

And so, 43 out of the 50 children present voted to ban this clearly toxic chemical.

However, this chemical isn't typically considered toxic at all.

In fact, dihydrogen monoxide is simply H2O, which is nothing but water.

Nathan Zohner's experiment wasn't a legitimate attempt to ban water, but instead an experiment to get a representation of how gullible people can really be.

Also, all of the points that Zohner used to convey his point were 100% factually correct; he just skewed all of the information in his favour by omitting certain facts.

In recognition of his experiment, journalist James K. Glassman coined the term "Zohnerism" to refer to "the use of a true fact to lead a scientifically and mathematically ignorant public to a false conclusion".

And this occurs a lot more often than you think, especially when politicians, conspiracy theorists, etc., use proven facts to persuade people into believing false claims.

The fact that people can mislead, and be misled so easily, is highly unsettling.

The True Narrative

जब कभी बड़े स्तर पर हिंसा हो जाती है तब उसे पहले दिन कवर करना मुश्किल काम होता है. हर किसी के पास अपना एक अलग वीडियो होता है और अलग-अलग दलीलें. हर वीडियो एक अलग कथा की तरफ ले जा रहा होता है. कई कथाएं मिलकर एक गाथा में बदल जाती है. जिसे आप हिंदी में बहस का मुद्दा, वृतांत और अंग्रेजी में नैरेटिव कहते हैं. कल यही हुआ हिंसा से नैरेटिव का वीडियो हाथ लग गया. सारी लड़ाई इसी नैरेटिव को लेकर है. कौन अपनी नैरेटिव को करोड़ों लोगों तक पहुंचाने की क्षमता रखता है. आप समझ सकते हैं. जैसे एक फरवरी को बजट है. लेकिन आप बजट की बात नहीं कर रहे हैं. क्या बात करते हैं? ये तय करता है कि कौन-सा नैरेटिव चलवाया जा रहा है. पिछला पूरा साल बस तीन-चार नैरेटिव में निकल गया. ये साल भी निकल जाएगा... Don't worry

 

Men's: Eight Style Mistakes

Metal should match metal - gold with gold and silver with silver.

The tip of your tie should fall midway down your belt buckle or ‘button to button’ from your shirt's top button to the button on your trousers.

Tie clips should be shorter than your tie.

Tie clip should be placed between the 3rd and 4th shirt button (contemporary rule) Your socks should match your trousers in order to eke hate your legs.

The width of your tie should be dictated by the width of your lapels.

Thin with thin and thick with thick. Your shoes and belt should be the same or similar color tone.

Your pocket square should compliment your shirt and tie but never match either.
