    Be Creative!

    This week’s banter between Mike, Charles, and Jerm makes the case that creativity is fundamentally an act of resistance — a way to refuse to let societal control and conformity flatten you into a passive consumer. Distraction culture and consumerism are designed to keep people scrolling instead of making things. That is no accident. When you look at movements like punk and blues, you see the same pattern: they started as raw, rebellious forms of self-expression, but commercialisation watered them down and sold them back to people stripped of their edge. Community is crucial here — creativity thrives when people share ideas and support each other, not in isolation. And it is not just about inspiration; you need practical skills and education to actually express yourself. Without the tools, the urge to create does not go anywhere. Algorithms can mimic style, but they cannot replicate the human drive to make something — that drive is essential to what it means to be a person. Creativity isn't just a nice hobby either; it is necessary for personal growth and for society to actually move forward rather than to become useless eaters. ► Join UK Column Live every Monday, Wednesday and Friday at 1pm UK time or watch previous live recordings here: https://bit.ly/UKColumn_Live ► [UK Column Website] Explore all our written and video content on the official UK Column website: https://www.ukcolumn.org/ ► [Support UK Column] Please donate to support our independent journalism & investigative journalism: https://support.ukcolumn.org/ ► [UK Column YouTube] Please subscribe to the UK Column News YouTube channel for more alternative news and independent news: https://bit.ly/ukcolumnofficial Follow #UKColumn on: ► X: https://x.com/ukcolumn ► Telegram: https://t.me/ukcolumn ► Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/UKColumnExtracts ► Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/uk_column_news

    Charles Malet | A Thousand Words (Part 1 of 3)

    Charles Malet | A Thousand Words (Part 1 of 3) In Part One of this conversation, Charles Malet and Jake Fern discuss truth, control, fear, and what it means to truly think for yourself. From media narratives and public opinion to personal responsibility and sovereignty of mind, they explore why so many people feel trapped between wanting freedom and wanting to be told what to do. The discussion moves through childhood trauma, power structures, honesty, independent thinking, and the psychological pressure of living in a society that increasingly treats disagreement as dangerous. Charles reflects on his experiences in the military, policing, and journalism, while Jake brings a personal and philosophical perspective to the conversation. Despite the heavy subjects, this is ultimately a hopeful discussion — about staying grounded, remaining curious, and refusing to lose your humanity. A conversation about courage, authenticity, and the importance of carrying on with clarity and optimism, even in difficult times.
