Thus, one feels connected to this world, but this very world makes life uneasy, for it is saturated with disturbing news. Our social connectivity is dependent on social media, which is controlled by powerful entities, and thus we are indirectly controlled.

Heidegger’s philosophy calls for a retreat from the “They-self” to retrieve our authentic Self. Retreat, my friend, not to escape the world, but to find your authentic place within it.
