He emphasizes the importance of critical thinking and urges viewers to question the narratives presented to them.
“It’s crucial for people to recognize the biases that exist in media reporting,” Apesland explains. “By understanding how language shapes our views, we can become more informed and make our own judgments about what’s happening in the world.”
