We swim in a sea of propaganda dished out by corporate and political parties, plus every special interest group that wants to separate us from our money or free will. Humans are by nature social creatures and political animals — but the desire to express our unique personalities gives us an advantage over the monetary or political interests of influencers. The tension between our desire to belong or to express our true self puts us in the social media arena. The Art of War says if you know yourself and your enemy, you will win a thousand battles. Victory goes to those who are self-aware and can think critically about what they hear and see. We can master our impulses and feelings to liberate ourselves. This is the basis for an American victory over China in Fatal Move.
