TV From Last Night

 Last night, via RTL, they ran a episode of #Why.  Topic?  "Rage on the street - is our democracy in danger?"

Show assembled by Sophie Maier....mostly suggesting massive right wing demonstrations in Germany being 'normal' now and a threat to democracy (at least in Germany).

I do agree....way more demonstrations in Germany now (rage mindset is hyped up) but it involves both left and right wing topics.  

Some of this is purely agenda 'garbage'....some relates to some outside influence (going past the German border)....some relates to propaganda (left and right)....and some to internet 'tools' which provide access to society (something you didn't have 30 years ago)..

My humble belief?  I'd imagine that 10-percent of German society today (even teenagers) are hinged on some form of rage (bitterness or obsession work just as well).  

The skill of German public TV to counter this era of resentment or irritation?  The public forum situation might have worked well ten to twenty years ago.....but in the new world....it's not able to convince people of 'change'.

Worth a review of #Why if you can find it.
