In today's populistic society, there is a notable absence of a responsible leadership that possesses both political and moral independence. This lack creates an environment where public sentiments can be easily manipulated for personal gain. Such a scenario allows groups with significant organization, resources, and voices to significantly influence political discourse.
As a result, this powerful minority could potentially shape a political landscape that prioritizes their interests over the collective well-being and safety of society. This situation raises concerns about the rational decision-making processes necessary for governance, as the overwhelming influence of such factions may undermine efforts to address the common good.
