I think it’s a problem when peoples personal life can be loaded up to social media.
With phones and social media there isn’t any privacy—even nasty acting people shouldn’t be uploaded without their approval.
Cars were a great invention but it got crazy before there were some rules of the road.
Nothing will get better until these phones and social media have some rules.

Don’t communicate in writing if you can speak it. Don’t speak it if you can express it with a wink of the eye.
I was a bartender for 20 years...10 of those at a country club full of doctors, lawyers, judges, etc. People would be shocked at the things I’ve heard. And I never said a word to anyone. Wouldn’t have even thought about repeating any of it. This just blows my mind.
Just wow. Thanks for sharing. Social media truly is the bane of our times,
The campaign message needs to get out unfiltered, the media is more corrupt than ever before. LOTS of great inspiring professional TV commercials with consistent messaging.
David Limbaugh left out another indicator of our crumbling nation, and that was the phony impeachment of PDJT. The entire thing was politically motivated and an abomination of the rule of law. Ironically, Trump’s November opponent was demonstrably guilty of what he was impeached for, yet gets no punishment.
And might as well lose your phone and Alexa and Siri while you’re at it.
They spy on you as well.
I hope we are. Of course, it won't be apparent if it's a "silent" majority. The left has turned us into facsimiles of the majority of the people of Germany who did not support Hitler, but were afraid to say something out loud for fear of being beaten up by Brownshirt goons.

Your last sentence does seem to describe exactly what we need. We have a good Constitution if only we can get those in power to live up to their oaths of office & heed it so the rest of us can live by it. A good start might be by bringing back something that the older generation used to do as school children.....beginning the school day by the pledge of allegiance to our flag. Our present day court system would likely have a problem with that....not one reason why they should, though.
It has been 100+ years since the last time we cracked even 65% eligible voter turnout for presidential elections. Most of the time it has been way below that, and drastically less for congressional, state and local. Social media and the 24 hour news cycle conditions people to think that many more care about politics and culture than actually really care, at least enough to vote about it one way or the other.
The truly horrific thing is that I can’t really picture things being any better if more people deigned to vote. Pretty much the opposite in fact.
