When Democracy Becomes a Contest of the Lesser Evil: Rethinking the U.S. Electoral System
Description
In this episode, we unpack a hard truth: when elections feel more like a choice between the uninspiring and the unqualified, what remains of democracy’s promise?
🗳️ Why has the U.S. presidential race become a recurring dilemma of “the lesser evil”?
🧱 How do structural flaws in the electoral system limit real political choice?
📉 What happens when polarization replaces dialogue, and ethics give way to expediency?
⚖️ Is democracy still empowering the people—or just managing their expectations?
From systemic gatekeeping and media bias to the collapse of political moderation, we explore how the American democratic model is drifting from its foundational ideals. But this isn’t just a critique—it’s a call to rethink what true democratic reform could look like.
🎯 If you’re disillusioned by modern politics and curious about what could change, this episode is for you.
