About Signal and Society
Signal and Society is a project born of frustration — and possibility.
In a world where information is cheap and attention is weaponized, we’re here to trace the signal beneath the noise. This site explores systems, governance, power, capital, and the people caught between them — not from the perspective of ideology, but of impact.
We’re not interested in spectacle, spin, or clickbait. We’re interested in what’s real — what moves, what governs, what extracts, and what resists. We want to understand how power operates in modern systems, and what it looks like when ordinary people push back, take hold, or reimagine the frameworks they live within.
We believe this isn’t a battle of left vs. right. It’s capital vs. labor. It’s power vs. the governed. It’s dignity vs. disposability.
Signal and Society isn’t neutral — but it is honest. We believe:
- That democratic institutions can work — if they’re built and defended by the people
- That technology should serve society, not extract from it
- That policy matters, but only insofar as it affects human lives
- That complexity shouldn’t obscure accountability
- That class, not partisanship, is the defining struggle of our age
We write for systems thinkers, public servants, disillusioned technologists, armchair analysts, and those who still believe in building something better — even after the world has burned a little.
This project uses human writing, machine assistance, and stubborn clarity to document, decode, and sometimes provoke. Some of what you read here may be generated with help from AI. All of it is curated, edited, and published with care.
We value people over profit. Signal over spectacle. Governance over grift.
If you’re tired of noise, welcome. Tune in.
