Does Social Media Engineer What We Believe? with De'Vonte Owens @xxoutsidetheboxx

"Life is literally what you make it. That is the most true thing in life that you can ever be told." De'Vonte OwensWhat if the beliefs you defend the hardest were handed to you by an algorithm?In this episode of the Earth Xperience Podcast, host Dani sits down with De'Vonte Owens, a Jamaican American marketer who calls himself a Pan African realist, for a wide open conversation about identity, conditioning, and what it really means to think for yourself in a world that seems built to keep us divided.De'Vonte has spent ten years inside the social media machine, and he uses that insider knowledge to break down what he calls engineered tribalism, the way platforms quietly feed you content that doubles down on what you already believe until you cannot see any other side. From there the conversation opens into colorism and the pressure of light skin versus dark skin, the difference between being pro black and being Pan African, and why so much of what we call truth may really be psychological conditioning we never chose to examine.Dani and De'Vonte go deep on religion and deconstruction, the line between spirituality and organized religion, and how language itself shapes the way we experience pain, identity, and reality. They explore good and evil as a question of intention rather than fixed labels, what it means to recognize real love and why he believes it is so rare, and De'Vonte shares unexpected and deeply personal spiritual experiences, including astral projection and an encounter he believes was his late grandfather.This is a conversation for critical thinkers, free thinkers, realists, and anyone who has ever felt the pull to step outside the box and ask whether they are looking for their tribe or looking for the truth.Questions to sit with:What beliefs do you hold right now that you have never actually examined for yourself, and where did they truly come from?If your social media feed has been quietly shaping what you believe, what would it take to step outside that box and really hear the other side?When you think about good and evil, do you measure them by intention, by outcome, or by something else entirely?Have you ever had an experience you could not explain, and how did your existing beliefs decide whether you called it good, bad, or something in between?About De'Vonte Owens:De'Vonte Owens builds social media and television ad campaigns for businesses.
