The CBC Manifesto

You are here because you are tired and hungry.

You are tired of being sold the lie that consensus is truth. Tired of hearing thought motivated by profit. Tired of standing against the the hot winds of echo-chambers and armchair philosophers who insist their word is gospel.

You are hungry for a revolution motivated not by zeitgeist or corporate accessibility, but by reason and the understanding that words have power. Hungry for a generation so sick of being force-fed emptiness that they rise together and challenge that which they’re told to take. Hungry for the option to keep what’s real and burn the rest.

The CBC is there with you. We are a consortium of thinkers, writers, artists, bloggers, and producers who are tired of being told what to think and how to think it. We live to embody the Socratic truism that “the unexamined life is not worth living.”

We believe no unexamined truth.

We hold no unexamined belief.

Smash your idols and hang the code; raise your colors and stand, awake, again.
