In early 2020, medical establishments treated Covid like influenza despite contrary evidence. Leaders prioritised public reassurance over facing the scary facts. This reveals a fundamental flaw in systems that value rule-making over genuine problem-solving.

You believe in shared rules, but what happens when politicians ignore them? We are seeing a new crisis of democratic norms. Can our leaders save us? The shocking answer is NO. Find out why the defence of democracy must be taken off the politicians and given back the people!
We’ve convinced ourselves that elections are the only way to run a democracy, but we’re missing half the picture. There’s a second, even more powerful way to represent the people that we already trust in courtrooms, so why aren't we using it in government?
If you think "management" is your only specialism, you’re doing it wrong. Studies prove that bosses who are highly competent in their field run happier and significantly more productive teams. We need to stop rewarding empty careerism and start valuing real expertise.
Why is your feed so toxic? Algorithms prioritise high arousal private interest stories over the subtler, non-hostile public interest ones. Unless it’s a fake AI tiger rescuing a goat/baby. Most of the time real public interest stories don't get traction despite being important.
What if your first thought in politics wasn't "how do I win," but "how do we solve this together?" That’s the jury mindset. See how shifting from a political contest to a community dialogue could restore the trust we’ve lost in our institutions.
Jack Dorsey thinks social media should be a public good, not a profit machine. But if likes and shares don't build bridges between people on social media, what does? We’re looking at how "middleware" and merit-promoting networks could actually save our democracy.
What if we could have a secret ballot on the issues Congress refuses to touch? From Brexit to gun checks, discover the one mechanism that could make parliaments responsible again. The power of the "better angels" is closer than you think.
Why can we trust 12 random people with a life-or-death court case but can't trust our own leaders? We’re looking at why the jury system actually works while our politics keeps failing. It’s time to move from "winning" to actually working out what to do next.
You think you chose your political side, but did you really? The competitive system isn't just about voting; it’s programming how you see the world and locking you into a box. It’s time to realise that treating politics like a team sport is breaking our ability to think clearly.
Aristotle noted that you cannot define a knife without knowing what makes it good or bad. This applies to us too. Goodness is not an external judgment from the sky, but rather it is built into our makeup. We are living this drama, yet the modern world has forgotten it.
Last year, Trump’s cabinet showed up to Congress completely unprepared to defend Trump’s indefensible budget. It’s that time of year again and I’ll be pressing top officials for the answers the American people deserve.

Did you watch the video? Ben-Gvir was actually there and engaged with what was happening while the hostages were being abused and humiliated. He's even pointing at and being verbally aggressive to a person whose hands are zip-tied.

You’re exhausted, but your brain won’t stop. Racing thoughts, what-ifs. Your brain is trying to hold onto it all so it doesn’t get lost. Try writing it down before bed, then close the notebook. That signals to your brain it doesn’t have to keep running all night. #mentalhealth

Een man redde een cobra door hem water te geven. Toen de cobra weer hersteld was, viel het de man meteen aan. Zo gaat het ook met mensen uit Afrikaanse en islamitische landen; je geeft ze alles en krijgt daar een hoop geweld en stank voor terug. Het blijven wilde beesten! #Fix
