We live in an era where information flows limitlessly, but are we consuming knowledge or just noise? The overconsumption of information—especially unverified, illogical, and unnecessary content—has become a daily habit, primarily fueled by social media and casual conversations.
Before the digital age, knowledge was passed down through experience, ensuring reliability. Today, anyone, regardless of expertise, can share information for fame, financial gain, or attention—often without understanding its societal impact. The consequences? Misinformation spreads rapidly, shaping opinions, decisions, and even realities.
The real challenge? Our minds are not naturally wired to unlearn misinformation. With nearly 80% of consumed content lacking authenticity, distinguishing fact from fiction becomes increasingly difficult.
It's time to be mindful of what we consume. More information doesn’t mean better knowledge. Let’s prioritize quality over quantity and ensure that what we absorb adds value, not confusion.
