The War on Truth: How Disinformation and Social Media are Destroying Democracy explores how the promise of the internet, connection, community, and global dialogue, has been transformed into a weapon against reality itself. From the early optimism of social media to the architecture of virality, the book traces the hidden vulnerabilities that turned platforms into engines of outrage and division.
Across twelve gripping chapters, it reveals how attention became ammunition, lies became profitable, and algorithms fractured shared reality. You’ll see how memes can spark movements, conspiracy theories can undermine trust, and online rage can spill into real-world chaos. From election interference to public health crises, this is the story of democracy under siege.
Yet amid the collapse, the book searches for hope. It examines ways to rebuild trust, cultivate digital resilience, and redesign platforms ethically, asking the urgent question: can shared reality survive in an age of disinformation?
A must-read for anyone seeking to understand how social media is reshaping society, and how truth might still endure.
