That's because Davos and TED are like Twitter. The real questions and answers are in the DMs

3 deep 5 me

To be fair, I've seen some interesting TedX talks that managed to get through because some had f-cked up with the censorship ;)

i think Sebastian Junger had some real answers in his talk(s)

The stories permitted in the media are never the real stories.

When a complex problem arises should we only follow a "real" answer? will nothing they pitch help anything? The people who give Ted talks aren't all bad. Talking in such large generalizations is kinda part of the issue we face now no?

You don't think TED provides ancillary benefits, that by having people look for cool, new, interesting ideas they're bound to find some some of the time? I mean, that's the argument for funding a broad span of university research, even when they don't have obvious application

No kidding Sherlock
