À propos de cet audio
From ancient Rome’s bread and circuses to today’s endless outrage cycles, distraction has always been a tool of power. Governments and media flood us with scandals, spectacles, and noise not to inform but to divert. While attention is captured by drama, the real decisions that shape our lives unfold in the background.
This episode unpacks the strategies of distraction including dead cat moments, outrage bait, and the flood of trivial news that keeps us divided and exhausted. Drawing on the ideas of thinkers like Noam Chomsky and real examples from modern politics, we explore how attention is manipulated and why reclaiming it is an essential act of democracy.
In a world built on noise, focus is resistance.
