Three Monkeys Revisited

Just as not every food is good for physical health, not every expression or depiction is good for people's cognitive health. Everyone should work to suppress harmful narratives and promote beneficial ones. Media professionals, whether involved in information or entertainment, need to be especially cautious. These services should promote the humanisation of every individual.

Admittedly, such presentations may not seem sensational, glorious, or glamorous—qualities often sought for broader market appeal. But each person should at least reflect on what truly works for them and what does not, as members of a larger community.

One must have this etched in their mind: the community affects your personal well-being heavily, irrespective of your personal status.
