Summary: This episode highlights the allegations about Jussie Smollett experiencing a hate crime. I share my point of view about how we're quick to save people without evidence and cancel them when we don't have evidence either. Social media has such a large influence on individuals and we lack the ability to do our own research before forming an opinion. I express the lack of empathy we have for individuals who may be going through emotional turmoil, we just look at things at face value. I discuss how the Chicago PD has not released tangible evidence to the public but we've already called Jussie Smollett a liar based on hearsay. Research and reading are fundamental so we can make well informed opinions. --- Support this podcast: <a href="https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/SilentSymptomsPodcast/support" rel="payment">https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/SilentSymptomsPodcast/support</a>
