...we're gonna have to re-evaluate old concepts of free speech and democracy.

Everyone's on anti depressants/sleepers/speed, the chuds are blasting testosterone out their ears until they stroke, weed is everywhere and as potent as heroin.

Add the perfect dopamine delivery system, a political internet economy modeled on the addictive technology of vegas slot machines.

It's gonna have an effect on the national psyche.

Is it a partial explanation for Q?

Shout out to the divorced, biker, small business tyrant, dad...caught with test injectables and thc edibles, and guns, after the Capitol. Just the only man for the moment.

    As you wish.

    I'm interested in your response to the core of the last post though:

    Fundamentally, is there a point at which we re-evaluate democracy with consideration for modern factors which didn’t exist in the past? It’s glib, but one of the conditions for democracy is an educated citizenry. We don’t have that imo.

    Would we consider re-evaluation (of democracy) when the entire republican party is objectively irrational qanon white supremacists, as an extreme example?

      I reject this premise. I'm not particularly interested in answering a hypothetical based on something that you believe in. I don't think the problem is that people have been "dumbed down" and I do not support whatever "re-evaluting democracy" means that would attempt to correct something like that. It's really that simple.
