Drowning in Data, Starving for Truth
We were promised a revolution. The internet, we were told, would democratize knowledge—bring the wisdom of the world to our fingertips and make us more intelligent, more informed, and more connected than any generation before. But something went wrong. Because despite living in the most information-rich era in human history, we're not more informed—we're more distracted, misled, and divided than ever before.

I Hate America for Helping Israel Let me be clear: when I say “I hate America for helping Israel,” I don’t mean I hate Americans.

I hate how my government turns a blind eye to Palestinian suffering, and how the media spins tragedy into "self-defense" for one side only.
