The video is adapted from Margreet de Heer’s comic book “Philosophy: A Discovery in Comics” and tells the story of a man who ran up to Socrates to tell him some important news about a friend. Socrates stopped him and passed the information through a filters test only to find that it wasn’t useful to him at all… Socrates’ three sieves are just as useful today as they were in Socrates’ time when it comes to evaluating the real value of information.
