While reading 'Storyworthy' by Matthew Dicks I became intrigued by storytelling.
Yuval Noah Harari seduces with his storytelling, "but a close look at his record shows that he sacrifices science to sensationalism, often makes grave factual errors, and portrays what should be speculative as certain."
"most dangerous of all, he reinforces the narratives of surveillance capitalists, giving them a free pass to manipulate our behaviors to suit their commercial interests."
