Correctness literally doesn't matter in the realm of politics. Only, who is the loudest and most persuasive.

- kodz4 7y agoMore like a bias towards people with the most energy. There are lots of loud and persuasive people around, but to stay relevant, social/news media selects for the ones that are tireless in performing their routines with robotic efficiency day in day out.
- anomaloops 7y agoAs an aside, is there a latin-based term for this kind of authoritative persuasion? I want to say it's ochlocracy, but generally it's not just any kind of mob I'm thinking of, but the mob that is the loudest. Rule by the loudest voices. A magnaocracy? (not to be confused with the fantastical magocracy)
