‘Age of Intolerance’ aims to highlight the uncomfortable truth that on the eve of 2025, we might be drifting further away from democratic principles of inclusivity, human rights and protection of fundamental freedoms. This is done by shedding light on the commonalities between this shift towards rightwing populism and cult of personality politics at national, regional and global levels. Is this the result of narrative wars or global cost-of-living crisis or mass unemployment or identity politics? How does the use of social media and AI figure into this equation in exacerbating the spread of mass disinformation? These are the pressing questions of the world we find ourselves in: A world where intolerance reigns supreme.
