Things you may not have known, things you may not have thought about or simply things or perspectives to consider.
For years, Wikipedia has been hailed as the digital encyclopedia of the people, a collaborative, open-source repository of knowledge built by volunteers across the globe. In theory, this democratic structure was its strength: a platform where anyone could contribute, correct, and refine the world’s understanding of nearly any topic. In practice, however, Wikipedia has become […]
In nearly every discipline, whether scientific, industrial, educational, or philosophical, the question arises with regularity: How do we invent something new? This question seems exceptionally pressing now that AI has entered the conversation. Of course, many seem to think such questions demand complex answers, theories, models, or technological breakthroughs. I disagree. I would argue that […]
When someone insists, “There’s no way the government could keep something like that a secret,” regardless of what “that” might be, they are making a claim that simply collapses under even the slightest scrutiny. To believe such nonsense is to ignore both distant and recent history… and logic. Government secrecy is not only a very […]
This article may end up a little “preachy,” but I feel compelled (or provoked) to speak up. A recent Gallup survey I read seemingly demonstrated a critical trend in U.S. political and ideological dynamics: the deep polarization between the major parties. While much attention focuses on the ideological divide between Democrats and Republicans, the data […]
A reader recently emailed me with an insightful question: “Why does the Right always seem to be on the defensive? Also, why are conservatives, libertarians, and other ideological dissenters constantly forced to justify themselves against accusations rather than setting the terms of debate?” That’s a sharp observation, and while the answer isn’t simple, it definitely […]
A recent conversation with a friend compelled me to write this article. I want to share with you what I told him about corruption and oversight. Look, the “machine” wants you to believe that the real issue with recent government audits and investigations isn’t about corruption or incompetence—it’s procedural overreach. The argument goes like this: […]
I received a great email from a reader who asked a series of rather profound questions. I thought it might make a great article. The email read, “Dr. Dave! I read your article on the collusion of power. Great article! But I’ve done some research on the matter, and unfortunately, I continually find conflicting information. […]
In an age marked by conformity and groupthink, independent thought becomes a revolutionary act. Your thoughts matter. However, we live in a society that seems to be carefully designed to keep us compliant, distracted, and stagnant. Whether by design or by accident, that’s a problem because true progress begins with knowledge, critical thought, and action. […]
‘Paradoxical Behaviors and Uninformed Advocacy‘ seems like a weird title, but the truth is that human behavior is often contradictory. We find ourselves endorsing causes, policies, or actions that, upon closer inspection, don’t align with our true beliefs or best interests. This phenomenon isn’t just a quirk of human nature—it’s deeply rooted in cognitive processes […]
Back in 2013, I wrote an article talking about the importance of hydrogen fuel in our future. Indeed, the future of energy is being shaped by clean, sustainable alternatives to fossil fuels. While solar and wind have garnered much attention, hydrogen power is gaining traction in the transportation industry, with major players like BMW and […]
