America is not unique. Any democracy can fall to state capture by disordered discourse if there’s no systematic response. This isn’t something we can fact-check our way out of - it’s deeper than misinformation. It’s about power, identity, and the narratives that shape reality itself.

tbf it's always been that. The reason we arrive here today is because we allowed it to go on in weaker forms and pretended it was democracy.

Uneducated ignorant citizens who believe in wild conspiracy theories like "Flat Earth" is soft spot of any democracy.
A threat.
