Over the course of two days, I delved into “Can We Make Truth Great Again?” by François Noudelmann. This essay, rather than a full-length book, offers a unique perspective on the concept of truth and its intersection with identity and cultural commentary. Noudelmann explores how identity culture has shaped the United States and influenced the dynamics of who has the right to comment on various cultural aspects. The essay was not what I initially expected.

Today I started reading “What the Internet Is Doing To Our Brains, The Shallows” and I feel that I am on the other side of the experience. I have been through the passion for new content, the passion to constantly write the new things that people write, and the need to be connected. There was a time when to be connected, to be vigilitant, to be attentive, was rewarded by friendships, meetings in the real world, and at the very least conversations on social media.
