Keywords

DEI


DEI stands for Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion. It refers to the efforts to create a more diverse, equitable, and inclusive society by addressing systemic inequalities and promoting representation of marginalized groups.

Gaslighting


Gaslighting is a form of psychological manipulation in which a person seeks to sow seeds of doubt in a victim's mind, making them question their own sanity. It often involves denying reality, contradicting the victim, and making them feel like they are going crazy.

Islamophobia


Islamophobia is the fear, prejudice, or hatred of Islam and Muslims. It can manifest in various forms, including discrimination, violence, and the spread of negative stereotypes.

Elite Capture


Elite capture refers to the situation where a small group of powerful individuals or institutions gain control over a larger system, often to their own benefit. This can lead to corruption, inequality, and a lack of representation for ordinary people.
