# Sam Platzman's Wiki Tutorial

**Article Response:**
Danah Boyd's "Agnatology and Epistemological Fragmentation" discusses a very cryptic, yet highly involved issue in modern society: the use of technology to facilitate the spread of misinformation, and by proxy, ignorance. The use of social media bots to engineer an entirely different shared viewpoint in American politics has become the prime example of how acclamated people have become to adjusting what they behold as true to follow the overwhelming tides of bots posing misinformation. A point Boyd raises that is harrowingly relatable: misinformation is more readily available than truthful information; it's a sad thought to process in realizing how easily influenced entire societies are by a click of a button.

**Quotes I live by:**
> "Both the man of science and the man of action live always at the edge of mystery, surrounded by it." - J. Robert Oppenheimer

> "First they came for the Socialists, and I did not speak out— Because I was not a Socialist. Then they came for the Trade Unionists, and I did not speak out— Because I was not a Trade Unionist. Then they came for the Jews, and I did not speak out—Because I was not a Jew. Then they came for me—and there was no one left to speak for me." - Martin Niemöller
