Channel 4 news saying facebook is a danger to democracy ..Is it?
I believe our normal TV media stations are more of a danger to democracy than facebook..
They spread PROPAGANDA tv stations ..
My vote goes by the way my area is acting ..Acting all nice like no shootings then good leaders
Loads of shootings and poverty then not even facebook or the media will change my mind..
I think it's not danger to democracy. Its dangerous to their view of democracy. Facebook is a free platform on which everyone can express their opinion. So facebook is a chance for the parties and politicians who aren't as financially powerful to make an expensive campaign, to advertise themselves. For example, in an election a few years back I wasn't sure what to do. I didn't want to vote for the 2 biggest parties, so I was thinking boycott, but I saw a debate on Facebook, and a politician from a smaller party was making some points I really liked, and I voted for them. They did not won, but from that moment they are gaining more and more fans.
