  1. From what I find and this is more or less the case across different countries, the more ignorant and less educated someone is, the more the right wing are able to manipulate them against their own interest, the right is also much more likely to blame others for problems back home than to take responsibility for much of the mess they helped to create, this is especially the case in the UK and US, that deflecting blame always happens, we saw a lot of that under Trump in the US and Brexit in the UK, it archives nothing but to make the situation worse, which those same people that helped to create a bigger mess, end up blaming others for the mess. Democracy as a system is a fine idea, and it works as long as the people in it are well-informed on what they are voting on, take part in the voting process, which higher turn outs tend to keep the radical elements at bay, but unfortunately, too many in society get too emotional when it comes to voting, they vote on what they want and not what is realistically possible, they fall for lies very easy, especially on the right which are much more aggressive on cutting social systems and letting people fend for themselves, whiles also being more aggressive on the world stage. I also find the left and right debate is stupid, it's a stupid way to group someone with the aim of dismissing all their ideas, this is especially the case in the US, where it's not really about good or bad ideas, but from which side the idea is from that seems to count, the truth is, there is no left and right, everything is gray, and most of us have political views that span from left to right, the irony being is that a lot of people don't realise that. In any case, in a democracy, if you want the system to work better for your interest, people need to wake up and start voting responsibly, the people have the power, they just do a poor job of using it.
