My views on things often differ from those in my social circle. I am often bombarded with article links and videos from people with no words of their own attached. It is very easy to send a link. It takes a bit of effort to form a coherent paragraph expressing a single thought.
I would describe this kind of communication as lazy and not very good. I am sure others experience this often as well. I am wondering if there is a proper term for it, or if it is worth trying to coin a term for it.
It’s simply parroting what they see/read/hear, isn’t it? If they can’t explain their opinion in their own words is it really their opinion? Do they even understand it or the arguments against it?
