In a democracy, most choices are ultimately made by "the people" - and even though "the people" might make short-sighted choices or selfish choices or even 'bad' choices, we still reserve those choices to be made by "the people" through specific political processes.

Without googling a bunch of quotes, can we agree that a healthy democracy depends on an well-informed populace... that misinformation thwarts the goal of having a well-informed voting population?

A long as the 'zone is flooded with shit,' voters are going to make choices based on shit information; childish choices that do not reflect reality.

I realize I sound elite for a working-class voter, but it's counter-productive to ignore why there's massive migration, to ignore the impact of fossil fuel dependence, to ignore the astounding transfer of wealth to the 1%.
