The Demon of Low Cost Knowledge


Listen Later

In a world where answers are just a click away, have we lost the ability to truly understand?
The "The Demon of Low Cost Knowledge" takes a deep, emotional dive into the unsettling truth behind what we now call “knowledge.” Today, anyone with a Wi-Fi connection can post opinions, claim facts, and shape narratives — no expertise required. And while information has never been more available, real understanding has never felt more out of reach. Explores how dogmatism erects "walls" against new knowledge
This podcast is a heartfelt warning to a generation raised on instant access. We explore how "cheap" knowledge — information without depth, context, or credibility — is quietly reshaping the way we think, vote, and even care for one another. From social media to school hallways, we examine how misinformation spreads and how hard it’s become to know what’s real.
If you’ve ever felt overwhelmed by what to believe, or worried that the loudest voices aren’t always the wisest — you’re not alone.
The "Demon of Low Cost Knowledge" is for anyone brave enough to ask, "What do I really know — and how do I know it?" And "What percentage of my assertions are pure dogma?"
Because in a world overflowing with answers, the most powerful thing you can do is keep asking better questions.
