Truth is no longer discovered, it’s manufactured. Corporations decide what you read, what you watch, and what you believe. The billionaire class doesn’t just own the wealth; they own reality itself. They don’t need to burn books or silence voices, only to control the feed before your eyes, and human nature will do the rest.
They know people don’t crave truth; they crave comfort. And nothing soothes like a lie that flatters your beliefs. A distracted population is an obedient one.
That’s why the news no longer informs, it provokes. Headlines don’t tell you what happened; they tell you how to feel. Outrage sells. Division pays. And as you scroll through the noise, thinking you are free, you are already owned and under control.
