stance topic - Thesis

      In 2019-2020 the city of Buffalo spent $122,770,247 on police and $382,580 on youth programs according to buffalony.gov.

The means of communication changes across species and age, but the objective remains the same: being understood to survive. In humans's case, the strongest means of communication seem to be visual and audio.  While keeping in mind many's lack of an attention span, audio and visual communication seem as the best means of communication. Information is often retained better when it's heard compared to read for many, and this is why a spike in podcasts is prevalent. In the modern age many people would rather listen to an interview's audio rather than read the transcripts. The broth of what is being communicated is watered down when the tone and rhythm are missing. Reading a Dave Chappelle joke compared to hearing one is two different experiences, because the joke is in the delivery through tone and pace. The rhetoric added in audio communication is the spine cabinet of communication. It is w...
