🔎 What’s an Idiot? What’s a Charlatan?
Idiots are distractions — people or stories that steal attention from the issues that truly matter. Whether intentional or ignorant, they’re always off-track.
Charlatans are worse. They deceive, manipulate, or exploit others to erode democracy, dignity, truth, or justice — what we call our nonnegotiables.
This website exposes the Idiots so we can stay focused on the Charlatans — the ones doing the lasting harm.
