From Dirty Empire
Our everyday economic activity drives world politics. Our two-party system is a pleasantry we enjoy in the absence of conscious participation. Though the success of a democracy hinges on an informed public, we clamor for diversion.
Solutions: Don’t watch the news. Turn aside from advertising. Pursue independent sources of information. Don’t buy into the illusion of authority that comes with accepting as fact the expertise of others. Be a student of history.
