I see it all the time. This really gets on my nerves. Hyperbolic social media posts are a pet peeve of mine. Whether it is in social media posts on Facebook or Twitter, or if it is an email newsletter or blog posting, it is all the same.
Recently I started out subscribing to a daily newsletter. At first, the information seemed relevant and good. As the days wore on, I began to notice a pattern. Everything stated in the newsletter was over-the-top hyperbole. This was from a well-respected leader in the new age world.
As time has continued, I noticed that some of the things this person wrote about are not 100% true. Yes, they are using facts to make their statements, but the facts are so twisted you could make a hurricane out of a tornado. Often by what they wrote, you could tell they truly didn't understand the facts they were presenting, but it did not stop them at all.
