How Is This Better?
Challenging the grifters who are controlling our government, our attention, and so much of our daily lives.
We're constantly bombarded by grifters who claim to have all the solutions. From Donald Trump promising to "make America great" to tech bros who say they're making the world a "better place." But here we are in 2025 – and planes are falling from the damn sky, senseless trade wars are driving higher prices and economic instability, and so-called “social” media and AI are making everyone more isolated and lonelier than ever. It’s time to ask: How is this better?
Akilah Hughes is here to provide that much needed reality check. Covering everything from politics to entertainment to tech and late-stage capitalism, How Is This Better? challenges the grifters who are controlling our government, our attention, and so much of our daily lives.
