Fear is profitable. And it’s the weapon of choice. When we’re stuck in fear, we’re stuck in the part of the brain incapable of moral reasoning, clarity, curiosity, or real problem solving. Instead, we default to survival: black-and-white thinking, tribalism, and threat response. That’s exactly where the system wants us, be it corporations, political parties, media machines, and even foreign actors. The only way out? A personal philosophy rooted in timeless values. Not rage bait. Not curated outrage. Not trendy morals. Not hypocritical righteousness. You need a compass that doesn’t shift with the feed. And that begins inside. We used to outsource to religious identities. Now we outsource to ideological identities. What if you didn't outsource at all?
