How ideas get normalized.

AI can brainstorm, research, edit, and rehearse alongside you — but only you can answer the question that actually matters: is this still yours?

Where did you learn that?

Powerful, wealthy, and influential people are willing to spend millions of dollars on projects—not to make more money, but to put a specific idea in your head.

Those in power understand that your worldview is the ultimate resource.

One thing I've noticed is that many Americans understand the truth but are too afraid to say it.

That is a type of mass psychological manipulation that is hard to wrap my head around.

It's hard to see a rational way out. We are going to need to be shaken out of this spell.

@DrMcFillin Depression can have a variety of biopsychosocial causes.

Anyone saying otherwise is simplifying the picture to the point of lying.

@boreddeleuzian Freud was a Jewish political activist, not a scientist.

The idea that art is primarily about "self-expression" is historically new.

Art used to be about channeling the gods, nature, or the spirit of a people.
