Book Synopsis

Why the World Doesn't Make Sense: Reclaiming the Liberty You Didn't Know You Lost by Christine Menedis is a provocative call to action, challenging readers to confront the forces shaping our future and reclaim their freedom and independence in a rapidly changing world.

Why the World Doesn't Make Sense is a compelling exploration of the hidden forces undermining personal freedom and sovereignty in today's world. Christine Menedis, an early bitcoiner and veteran entrepreneur, reveals how ordinary citizens are unknowingly surrendering control over their lives to an intricate web of government systems, financial institutions, and global organizations. In a world that increasingly values conformity over independence, Menedis challenges readers to question the status quo and regain the liberty they may not even realize has slipped away.

With deep historical insights and thoughtful guidance, Menedis examines how global powers wield influence through money, digital tools, and media narratives. She explores the subtle yet powerful forces that shape our economic and political systems, drawing connections between the rise of centralized control and the erosion of strong individuals. She breaks down complex issues in an accessible way, from the evolution of money to the steady creep of surveillance, giving readers the tools to understand and resist these trends.

Grounded in both philosophy and modern-day realities, Why the World Doesn't Make Sense is both a wake-up call and a road map for readers who feel disoriented in a world of contradictions. Menedis's call to action empowers readers to reclaim their independence, challenge centralized power, and defend their own sense of liberty in an era of unprecedented global influence.
