    Takeaways

    Questioning the curated narrative and seeking the truth is essential in understanding complex topics.

    The education system should focus on teaching students how to think rather than what to think.

    The rise of content creators and new media platforms like YouTube has challenged the authority and credibility of legacy media.

    Cancel culture often fails to silence individuals and can lead to a backlash against those who attempt to suppress free speech. Cancel culture often misunderstands the importance of free speech and the unintended consequences of trying to shut down speech.

    Fear is a powerful tool used to manipulate and control people.
