I explore in detail how society has "lost the plot" in this episode. I examine how our emotions are exploited against us, keeping us distracted, divided, and obedient, through everything from cultural indoctrination to false headlines. I explain how emotional manipulation manifests itself in daily life, why a lot of the media is created to divert us from our actual course, and how to spot when someone is trying to direct you away from your own development. Above all, I will discuss doable strategies for sifting through the clutter, taking back control, and moving toward your true self—without having to conform to social norms.
