Extremely interesting. But one wonders if these “prebunking” methods wouldn’t be affected by the team’s unconscious or conscious biases, which in turn may be affected by misinformation.
As far as I understood it, and based on that one sample video, these videos mostly deal with and spotlight the usage of logical fallacies and manipulation tactics, used by any ”side” engaged in a misinformation campaign. So the only way they could be biased is by the generalised examples they use to explain the concepts, which should be minimal, if the people watching them actually do learn a new skill that can be applied to various scenarios (even the prebunking videos themselves!).
I really like this, and hope it kicks off, and doesn’t get corrupted too much. It’s teaching people critical thinking skills, and even more importantly imo, more emotional self-awareness.
