TikTok, YouTube, streaming services, movies, stories or media news. Everything is built into our evolutionary personality.
Have you ever read a column that was only based on mathematics and statistics with little written text (not to mention whether it had a recurring appearance based on whether it is important or not)? Of course, you are a member of homo sapiens.
News is made in stories of what happened in small hunter-gatherer groups. Who is in alliance with whom, who is breaking up who betrayed whom? Politics can actually be made successful to some degree in a small hunter-gatherer group (with ideologies (yes, they are something animalistic), hierarchies, alliances, conflicts, cooperation, and simple human communication).
When the group’s members were dancing around the fire, some songs were repeated – but to some length. Stories were told – to some length. Repeated tales are not popular.
And now imagine all those things cannot work in a country so populous as the US. Also, the patron-client system that is so own to people destroys everything and people are completely unable to eliminate it (for example, a large web of relationships is between the lobbyists, movers-and-shakers, crooks, super-rich groups, politicians, lodges, secret services).
So change the educational system, make people genetically fitter, and enable AI to co-lead our lives.
People should emphasize newspapers you can learn from, based on statistics and relevant scientific factors.
Because highly important political decisions shouldn’t be based on our prehistoric instincts.
