"You can recognize fools by the way they give full vent to their rage and let their words fly! But the wise bite their tongues and hold back all they could say." Proverbs 29:11

"When expertise becomes detached from outcomes and consequences, it mutates into a tool of control. The modern expert class is less Galileo and more medieval clergy, interpreting sacred texts for the masses, declaring heresy when questioned, and demanding obedience in the name of “the greater good."

This is an absolutely brilliant piece that captures the root of the problem, which is imagination capture, to explaining the solution; freedom to think and act. Job well done 👏🏻

This is definitely a huge problem that you are unpacking here and it’s one of those things that parents rarely think about or consider in the digital age.
