    Ignorance, whether it be accidental or caused, is the true enemy of democracy.

    Exactly—this is why I think it’s so important to support all viewpoints being shared openly, without resorting to bullying or censorship. People need access to all information.

    The more diverse perspectives and knowledge available, the better equipped people are to educate themselves and make informed decisions.

    True democracy thrives on the free exchange of ideas, not silencing those we disagree with. To your point, people living in an echo-chamber aren’t necessarily making the best choices. (Hi, Lemmy.)

    Thanks! :)
