In this episode of Reflections from Within, we dive into the ever-evolving world of social media and its impact on political discourse. With the rise of gimmicks, clickbait, and the commercialization of personal narratives, social media has become a battleground where authenticity often takes a backseat to manipulation. We’ll explore the illusions that dominate these platforms—how they shape our perceptions, distort reality, and fuel polarized debates. Moreover, we’ll tackle the changing political landscape, examining how social media not only amplifies division but also manipulates the public into chasing shallow narratives that serve corporate and political interests.
Join me as we strip away the illusions and uncover how to reclaim thoughtful, authentic engagement in a world driven by algorithmic trends.
