But conservative views are not the problem themselves, even though I don’t always agree with those, authoritarian views are.

And as I said in another comment, having the means to inform yourself doesn’t mean that you will do it, because it’s a chore, at least that’s how it is in our society. If it was different, if the public square (which is social media atm) wasn’t controlled by private companies, I think it would be a bit better.

I didn’t know that, but sounds like an old classic

In our society social media have destabilized our methods of communication and I think our communication has been broken and we still don’t know how to fix it. The public square is now private, even if the change might seem subtle, it’s a big disruption in society (Meta, Twitter, Google, TikTok).

Usually fascism stems from the bourgeoisie, not the lower class. But through disinformation from the class that controls information it manages to get promoted from the lower class too.

But when voting happens in a society that is misinformed, usually maliciously so, like in Turkey, it is not democratic, democracy works and is true to itself only when a vote is informed.
