The Enemy Within: How Division Hijacks Humanity​

Unity, not division, could be our greatest rebellion.​

• Tech companies profit from our hatred—the attention economy literally monetizes our division on many issues.
• Our stone age brains are drowning in digital complexity, triggering tribal instincts we can't control.
• To survive existential threats, we must expand our compassion, but we must overcome the enemy within first.

Our divisions have become tools in someone else's business model. We now spend about 30 percent of our waking life glued to smartphones when, for millions of years, we spent zero time on these devices. Meanwhile, the platforms reap billions. The attention economy isn't evil, it is soulless. It feeds off keeping us distracted, scared, angry, and divided.

Our digital world acts like an autoimmune disorder, with our defenses attacking the society they should protect.
