The Exercise of Politics has become a Methodized Misinformation of the Citizen

The great Greek philosopher Aristotle said that: “The greatest good for people is not Health, since one can manage any health problems to a satisfactory degree while enjoying a relatively good quality of life, but Politics is the greatest good. Since the policies of the politician aims to solve the problems of his fellow human beings”.

Unfortunately, currently, politics largely means methodical misinformation of the citizen. This is because politicians act not to solve the problems of the lives of their fellow citizens but with the first objective of their re-election at all costs.

These primary objectives of politicians may not come from corruption and their often incompetence or from the pathological type of authoritarianism that characterizes them, but to the fact that the logic and marketing strategy that has entered politics and transformed politics as a product that must gain impressions on the consumer (in this case voter) to have commercial success (victory in the elections).

But winning the impressions of the voter should have excellent impressions of the specific product (political-party-leader) presented to him.

In other words, today, the predominance of a political leader-party-politics is not a function of any training-ideology-vision that characterizes them respectively expressed-presented, but of the appropriate impressions created and methodical psychological submission to the electorate, naturally concealing any disadvantages in any case.

Given this targeting of political figures, public disinformation is the main way to practice politics and success in politics is to gain impressions every time.

It is impossible today for a politician to claim executive power and not to have at least two television stations, newspapers, radios of national space, respectively.

The presentation of the topics by the media is made in such a way that decisions on how to present the first news, the articles, and which photographs will be used are made by specialized technocrats in the manipulation of large population masses.

In this type of death situation, the fruitful criticism that raises concern and informs the citizen cannot be highlighted, nor can the criticism be highlighted.

Nor do the audit institutions of a democracy such as legislative and journalistic respectively function properly to judge policies in depth or to solve problems by proposing solutions. And this fact is a challenge for trapped civilians.
