in my experience, the people who give shape and content to the public authorities have moved from independent case handlers to interpreters of their personal views
i see a similar development in the media: independent news gathering regularly receives the opinion of the journalists who produce it
and I see that as a general development, for example on social media: the doggedness and brutal hardness with which people have to express their position
and I recognize that in our world leaders, who unabashedly send us ‘the people’ into the battlefields
who do I actually see when I stand in front of the mirror?
