A majority support does not render legitimacy to ideas/worldview. We might be wrong, like when we collectively assumed we roamed a flat Earth. Blindly following others’ notions, disables vital, critical thinking. An unabated quest for truth & meaning truly serves humanity.

We saved two young children from a flooded area and brought them to our orphanage a couple of days ago. Mustapha & Mouphatou were already facing hardship as their father had recently passed away and unfortunately their mother had also left them. Our orphanage now has 30 children.

The problem is not people being uneducated. The problem is that people are educated just enough to believe what they have been taught, and not educated enough to question anything from what they have been taught. 🧠

Very worrying ! Iran has accused journalists, Niloufar Hamedi & Elaheh Mohammadi of being trained U.S. agents. Hamedi was among the first to report on #Mahsamini’ s hospitalization & Mohammadi covered Amini’s funeral. They did their job. #journalismisnotacrime
