I think some of them imagine themselves to be the protagonist of the world and will be elevated to the dictator's best friend at some point. I'm basing this off having talked to an Iranian monarchist.

"The beatings will continue until morale improves!" vibes right there.

You need to find your niche when it comes to writing. For example I write mythological science fantasy, and I can count on one hand the number of books I've come across that fit that specific genre. You might not be able to write as well as someone else in general, but you can write what you write about better than anyone else.

Nazism isn't fascism is quite the take. I can't tell if you're a troll or just a pedant who goes about being pedantic wrong.

Fascism has happened exactly once in modern history.

Blatantly false.

Only if you're privileged enough it happens slowly.

Terrorism and mass murder. I actually lived near one, a van attack in Toronto.

You're being pedantic then being a pedant about being pedantic.

Look up The Art and Science of Dumpster Diving by John Hoffman.

I don't know about it's quality, whether the advice is any good. I just know it exists.

America has democracy??

I mean, misinformation has been a problem for as long as humans have existed. The overabundance of information and misinformation is new, but not their existence.

Legalize drugs, stop the war on drugs from Nixon era. It should be treated as a health problem, not a criminal one, and once they're at least decriminalized the cartel's profits would PLUMMET.

Ofc USA has probably the strongest propaganda system and has incentive for the cartels to continue existing, so I don't see that happening unless some change that's major and unexpected happens.
