Mythos

There is a lot that can be done for future. For startet, no Newspaper/TV-Channel should spread wrong informations about candidates, it should be forbidden. We saw it in the US and UK last year, and it will ruin life of many people, how can this be allowed? I have a feeling, that propaganda is displacing democracy in some countries.
