1. It sounds to me as if this oligarch believes we should destroy democracy in order to save it.

The biggest challenge to democracy isn't coming from the Internet exposing humanity to the world of different ideas but those who cynically profit against it by keeping the people divided in self-serving bubbles made of fear and ignorance.

It would be nice if the corporate media could focus on lifting people up, while promoting critical thinking instead of making arguments against the mass 21st century version of the Federalist Papers.

Thanks for the thread JustKay
