The Truth Has Come to Light ‘25

2024 was about the truth coming to light, and 2025 will be about how things appear in that light.

Next year will center on the things society recognizes as impossible to fake, alter, AI-generate, Photoshop, NFT, coin, or psyop. It will focus on the feedback loop of hyperrealism within the meta while setting the standard for what we truly value in the mesa.

Consider the consensus on X (formerly Twitter) regarding the US presidential election and how that consensus, along with the platform’s owner, ultimately helped make it a reality. Social media, Photoshop, and AI have showcased what humanity desires, establishing a precedent for what we value as a society—the aesthetic standard.

As Father Time progresses and humanity reaches its highest average age in history, the greatest value in Mother Nature lies in focusing on what is quickly unmodifiable as the ultimate signifier of individual exceptionalism. It is the endgame that defines true individualism.

Increasingly, attributes such as birthright, talent, merit, genuineness, IQ, innovation, originality, creativity, height, and silhouette will be held in the highest esteem. This is because, as a society, we understand that there is no quick fix for these qualities; they are inherently unmodifiable.

Consider how social media has dictated the ‘soft life’ and acts as an amplifier of all the attributes mentioned above—from TikTok clips of your favorite creatives or ‘hard mind’ to videos about birthright fantasies or aesthetics.

It is the endgame of value, which the light will shine on in the coming year.
