Hmmm, the problem is also with the voters, I mean what do you do with unimaginable un-informedness?
Educating one another directly and indirectly via the internet and through direct actions will do the trick (except for the hopelessly unreachable, perpetually dense and/or corrupt). Using the internet certainly doesn’t have anywhere near the reach and influence of the corporate mass media (yet), but it’s certainly becoming more powerful as time goes on.
It’s one of the reasons why even the vast American military-industrial complex couldn’t hastily push through air-strikes, etc. on Syria. An informed populace simply didn’t allow it. This was unprecedented, historic and revolutionary (and of course it wasn’t televised).
Speaking of “televised”, there’s efforts in the works now to also inform the populace on the American proxy wars in Syria and elsewhere. 2014 is going to be a helluva year.
It may not be glamourous. It’s often thankless (but rewarding nonetheless). It might even be a little dangerous. But doing our part to educate one another is already working. As internet alternative media gains more and more influence over corporate mass media, it’s only going to become increasingly more effective to reach the uninformed and misinformed with persuasive facts. The most dangerous (for corporatists), revolutionary thing that can happen to society, really.
Think of it as Peer to Peer Persuasion. Are you down with PPP?
