1. Provide a link to an online advertisement that caught your eye recently. Why did this ad appeal to you? Do you consider it to be truthful or deceptive, perhaps because it invokes an informal fallacy? What effect do you think the advertisement had on you?
  2. People say incorrect things online all the time, but you can’t respond to them all. How do you decide which false claims to respond to on social media and which to let stand?
  3. When you respond to someone on social media, how do you decide whether to respond publicly or privately? What are the general guidelines you follow, even if they are self-imposed?
  4. For much of this conversation, we’ve focused on posts and articles, but let’s not forget about memes. What is the value of memes — in other words, what can memes do that articles can’t? Finally, share a meme that made you laugh or think about something in a new way.
