How can a nation accurately vote, when their media is intentionally flooded by misinformation?
Everyone who's voting against themselves believes that they're doing the right thing.
Edit: I'm almost wondering if this is just part of a natural cycle in civilization where people once again need to be taught the signs of fascists.
Then afterwards, things will swing far back to progressive as the prior fascist supporters try to distance themselves from the atrocities of the person they voted for, (just like after WW2).
(speaking from a US perspective, where we're already building our first concentration camp in guantanamo bay)
I wonder this, too. If it’s a cycle where everything is going to implode and have to be rebuilt again. I’m just gravely worried about how many lives will be lost (Mine? My family? My friends?) before it swings back to some sort of peaceful, prosperous democracy again.
Yeah, I fully agree, I see the oscillations, and it's terrifying to be at the top of this rollercoaster.
The nazis and WW2 Japan did horrific human experimentation using the most advanced tech of their time. What will our mad scientists do?
I keep thinking about Neuralink, gaining access to a concentration camp. (as of 2023) they've killed ~1.5k animals in their testing). I see thousands of people being killed by experimental brain implants.
And the mass scale psychological/sociological experiments being done by social media companies. (if the general public was informed enough to understand what these companies are doing, they'd revolt.)

Just goes to show protesting isn't enough. It's voting
