Why did a lawsuit have to be filed and a judge to rule on it to do the right thing. Count the votes of ppl whose ballots were properly postmarked.

(2,275 posts)That is, we are arriving at peak information overload/noise precisely at a time when everyone is doing two jobs to pay tge bills and thus no time to sort through the clutter.
SOLUTIONS:
Teach media literacy.
Complement traditional art instruction with media arts.
Dems and progressives must launch media enterprises that radically change the way information is presented, repeated, and fact-checked.
Grassroots, person-to-person information systems and live media-sharing rituals need to be tested and implemented. Humanitarian houses of worship need to launch the same. Community-based information sharing and reality checking is unparalled and is the antidote to the webs biased free-for-all.
