The Road to Autocracy is paved with Psycopaths

Former Australian Prime Minister Brian Rudd has described Murdoch and his influence as a "cancer on our democracy" and has initiated a petition that calls for an inquiry into Murdoch's media dominance in Australia. The petition has been signed by over 500K (as of November) Australian citizens. Another former PM, Malcolm Turnbull - also a critic of Murdoch - has signed on to Rudd's petition.

In the U.S., the highly volatile and putrid concoction of disinformation and "fear and loathing" has been touched-off by greed-fueled android, Mark Zuckerberg, and his toxic social-media empire.

As is said: "the rest is history"! Out of this miasma emerged a conflicted and traitorous psychopath that is uniquely equipped to bring the worst out of those around him as well as making every situation that comes under his purview worse. He also has a knack for attracting the worst of humanity - individuals, like himself, who will betray their oaths of office and their country for a piece of "the action".

It's important to recognize what everyday life in the U.S. would be like, if the President wasn't a psychopath:

- the Covid-19 pandemic would have affected the U.S. much less severely. This tragic reality has again been brought to light by recent revelations gleaned from emails obtained by the House committee tasked with oversight of the Trump administration's coronavirus response.

- quacks like Scott Atlas and Paul Alexander - touting bogus and deadly "herd immunity" theories - would not have been given the opportunity to derail efforts to contain the Covid-19 pandemic.

- thousands of deceased Americans would be alive today.

- the "president" would not be doing his best to undermine the bedrock of democracy - free elections, as well as actively sabotaging the transition to the next administration.
