It’s actually a song my Mexican friend knew, I didn’t even though I’m the Italian one xD

Che figata di serata!

The sooner our society abandons individualism and goes back to community oriented structures, the faster these problems will disappear.

Mass media, mass religion, mass communication, they all included manipulation. From telling lies, to telling only part of the truth, to salience and propaganda. AI is the latest scary tool.

The issue is that we expect the individual to have the tools to defend themselves from this. That’s not how it works. We need human connection, small family communities, where members help each others on the various aspects of life, including following public discourse and politics. When everyone has their sense of belonging to a place of care, the value of money and of the mass manipulations it uses falls and fails to accomplish a thing.

Let’s also stop believing that people vote mainly based on how easy it is to manipulate them. People vote based on their culture, their experiences, their overall mood on how things are going. The turnout in New York should show that. No fake news on Mamdani had an effect that comes even close to people’s connection to a grassroots campaign, people’s dissatisfaction with Trump and billionaires, people’s cultural affiliation to a young immigrant that speaks of affordability, nurseries, and pride to be one’s true self against discrimination.
