CliffsNotes for Modern Living
One major goal of the wiki is to provide an easy yet comprehensive guide to the forces that are impacting modern society. For example:
- Influential Internet trends like the manosphere and secular gurus that go unnoticed by people who go outside
- New forms of grift to be aware of
- Important trends in technology and emerging social norms regarding their use
- Media literacy and critical thinking skills
The wiki provides a continuing education curriculum designed to create fully self-actualized citizens of a modern democratic capitalist state. This means being aware of how society actually works, so you don't resort to conspiracy theories in the absence of clarity.
