Note: According to Neil Postman, our society has become saturated with information, leading to a state of meaningless abundance where we are unable to discern what is truly significant or irrelevant, resulting in a lack of understanding about what matters most. This glut of information can ultimately lead to a disorientation and disconnection from the world around us, causing us to lose touch with meaningful experiences and relationships.

Alternative Media Insights
Note: As we venture into the realm of alternative media reporting, it is essential to acknowledge that not all sources are created equal. While some outlets offer crucial counter-narratives and insights, others pose a significant risk of misinformation, perpetuating controlled opposition or serving as wolves in sheep's clothing, intent on misleading their audience with agendas designed to confuse rather than inform.

Wokeness is a personality defect where people are obsessed with the latest fashion in politics as described by their globalists controlled media. It is a condition where people are obsessive about doing what they are told is the "fashionable" thing to do. The root cause is a lack of sceptiism and an arrogance in the "superiority" of their beliefs, that they only took up because of the media. They were told that it was the right thing to do, without providing any evidence or allowing any argument.
