MODERATORS
we can't be trusted to govern ourselves as long as we are reliant on media streams owned by psychos and sickos. we the people, out in the streets, need to own truth.
and then there's the question about who counts the votes. is this really the will of the people, or is this the will of the wielders of power there?
“We the people” can’t ‘own’ truth. That’s how you get Jewish space lasers and gay chemo frogs. The general public is just not smart enough to handle things these days. People owning their own truth is how you get Karen’s who ‘did their own research’.
That's not what I'm saying. I'm saying to support independent journalism like pro-publica. Not to all isolate ourselves further into our own media bubbles
Yes. People are a problem.
