People are reflected in a window of a hotel at the Davos Promenade in Davos, Switzerland.

The Davos set are worried about the "integrity" of the "democratic" processes in nations which are basically just giving a imprimatur to the chosen neo-liberal manager for oligarchic capital.

Meanwhile true independents and the public are concerned about the more real threat of corporate control of GLLM automation, layoffs and poverty.

I wonder what an extremely small margin this strange discussion is about. The very big majority of people or voters doesn't even have any time or knowledge to produce such fake news or election influence and also no time or knowledge to explicitly make intensive searches for it or reading it. I guess that's only a very limited debate within that very small circle of AI fake producers / hackers etc and their similarly small group of counterparts. Both should not such overestimate themselves. They are of nearly insignificant importance, influence and our planet surely turns on and on with or without them.

Shocking. The only disinformation and lies you should believe are the ones in the politicians' official manifestos.
