Modern times really are a Museum of Novelties
The fiat world is crumbling, and those in charge have failed.
To mask those failures, they’re harvesting the growing rage and resentment worldwide—and using it to fuel the prospect of another massive war.
What you can do to protect yourself and your mind:
1⃣ Question the narrative – Look at the data: collapsing fiat markets, soaring inflation, and a surge in nationalist rhetoric across Europe and the U.S.
2⃣ Control your media diet – Follow diverse, fact‑checked sources; set a daily limit on sensational headlines.
3⃣ Strengthen mental habits – Meditate, journal, or take a brief walk each day to reset stress hormones and keep critical thinking sharp.
Stay informed, stay resilient.
