"The men the American people admire most extravagantly are the most daring liars; the men they detest most violently are those who try to tell them the truth. A Galileo could no more be elected President of the United States than he could be elected Pope of Rome." - H. L. Mencken, 1922 #FWakeY1922 #FWakeYear1922

"It does really seem to me that every time a new form of mass communication is invented, humanity explodes into a bloodlust. The printing press caused widespread literacy - that is, knowing how to read, but the newly literate had absolutely no clue how to distinguish truth from lies. This caused the 30 Years War, which devastated Europe to a degree that wouldn't be seen again until 1914. Which happened to occur shortly after the invention of radio"

"We are too stupid to collectively make a informed decision. We get persuaded by propaganda so easily that winning election these days is all about making meme like actions, rhetorics and misinformation.
I mean look at Iran and Pakistan, they are also democracy.
At the end of the day, democracy just a mob rule, if we do not educate our kids better all we get is a meme government."
