Even The Guardian isn’t independent
The Guardian tells a familiar story. It presents itself as undeterred, it presents itself as independent. It insists that multinational media lobbyists have nothing to do with its content. On the surface, this reassurance feels necessary. After all, trust depends on it. Yet once we move past declarations, doubts emerge. Power rarely allows institutions to…

How would music look if labels were not a cartel?
Music looks free on the surface. Anyone can upload a track. Anyone can stream. Yet power never vanished. It consolidated. A small cluster of major labels still coordinates access, visibility, contracts, catalog ownership, and revenue flows. No conspiracy meetings are required. Structural alignment does the work. Therefore the real question is not whether music feels…

From helpful bankers to today’s sociopaths
Power hides behind respectable faces; yet its shape changes with every century. Presidents rise and fall. Bankers remain. And when we trace this relationship through history, a disturbing shift appears. The alliance begins with helpful advisers. It ends with sociopaths who treat nations like disposable assets. We travel from cooperation to domination; the arc becomes…

Rationality vs algorithms: X must stop feeding delusion
X rewards emotion over logic. Therefore religious content floods the feed every hour. People worship a founder who likely never existed, and they do it with absolute certainty. They write as if myth were fact. They celebrate stories that collapse under the weight of evidence. Yet the algorithm keeps pushing more of it. It pushes…

How Western control keeps religion thriving in the Global South
Religion does not collapse under poverty. It expands with it. It grows strongest where despair, dependency, and debt dominate. In the Global South, this dynamic is no coincidence. The West built a system where money dictates morality and where faith fills the gaps left by exploitation. Behind every missionary, every NGO, and every sermon stands…

The super-rich own $100 trillion. And we are their slaves
Modern slavery does not need chains. It needs numbers, contracts, and consent. The world’s richest families now control more than $100 trillion in hidden wealth. It sits behind banks, hedge funds, and corporate fronts. They could end poverty tomorrow, yet they will not. Because their purpose is not to improve the world, but to dominate…

Evolution’s greatest mistake: How we became easy to manipulate
Modern manipulation no longer wears a crown or uniform. It wears a logo. Consumer society is built on the same instincts that once guided survival — status, belonging, and pleasure. Marketers learned to exploit those instincts with surgical precision. They do not sell products. They sell emotions, symbols, and identities. The biology of desire Advertising…

Democracy is a shitty system. Voters know nothing. Voters are shit
This claim comes from Jaroslav Haščák, co-founder of the Penta Group and one of the most powerful men in Slovak business. His words, caught in the infamous Gorilla recordings, shocked the public but also revealed something deeper. Behind the vulgar tone lies an uncomfortable truth about how elites see democracy — not as an ideal,…

Bill Gates vs climate scientists: Hope or denial?
Bill Gates believes the climate crisis, while serious, is not the end of humankind. He argues that human intelligence, technological innovation, and financial power will ultimately prevail. To him, climate change is a solvable engineering problem. It is not a sign of moral collapse, only a challenge of scale. He envisions a future of nuclear…
