RE: Protests in Poland as Right-Wing Ruling Party Dismantles Democracy

in #news7 years ago

Well, that's the thing. Democracy can be about whatever the majority says it's about. Given the outreach of today's media and the repetition of whatever tptb wants us to hear, the majority can be convinced of just about anything. That's a part of the problem, and why groups like this one in Poland are on the rise across Europe and elsewhere.

It doesn't have to be Trump-esque, but it does have to try and solve some of today's systemic problems. Who knows, maybe they can do something about their currency to avoid the fate of some other European states. If they try, the powers that be will ensure the world knows (via sensationalism and repetition) that they are the new Nazi party, regardless of what they do (kind of like the various Trump accusations that have mostly disappeared).
