One Stirred Up A Hornets Nest

When language becomes dangerous, telling the truth becomes an act of rebellion. At Mount Blanc High, every word is under surveillance. Books are banned, pronouns policed, and students taught that safety matters more than truth. Ben, a quiet senior with too many thoughts and not enough filters, refuses to play along. His defiance begins as a classroom argument but soon ignites a cultural firestorm that no one, not even his teachers, can control. As the school unravels and outrage metastasizes online, Ben discovers what it costs to think freely in a world terrified of disagreement. And when tragedy strikes, his father must sift through the wreckage to understand what if anything could have saved his son. A haunting, fearless satire about ideology, faith, and the death of honest conversation, One Stirred the Hornets Nest asks the question no society wants to face: what happens when truth itself becomes forbidden speech?
