People are aware, that's not the problem IMO.

Every system needs to adjust when people are aware, that's why democracy works and autocracy not.

People are aware

Are they really?

They are aware something is wrong. Not what's causing it. The powerful have learned to scream "immigrant, immigrant,trans, gay, black!" when anyone looks their way, and assure you their big pile of cash is actually helping you by getting bigger.

Not everyone ofc but there are always people who are.

this. I want socialism and capitalism balanced. things that everyone needs should be available to everyone and not left to the market but unnecessary things like media and toys and whatnot the government should not be concerned about. Then there should be plenty of regulation to keep things safe. but when it comes down to democracy vs autocracy I want as much democracy as possible.
