It has long been noticed that the zombification of the population is carried out through traditional mass media tools, which include television and radio broadcasting, as well as classic print media. However, recently it is the Internet audience that has seriously grown, which is to a greater extent protected from the negative impact programs of the above information platforms, which is directly related to the presence of feedback. After all, it is one thing when information from the “top” falls on the “nipple” system (blow there, back - it will not work), and it is quite another matter when it is possible to influence the thematic source itself.
It is quite obvious that political strategists of today do not fully justify their mission, despite the fact that funding for various socio-political projects in this area is carried out in a fairly significant amount. That is, the intellectual component of this kind of activity is far from perfect, which can be observed over and over again, at least based on the results of the presidential elections in various countries, including, of course, the CIS countries.
Why is it beneficial not to increase election attendance?
Perhaps some political scientists have come to understand that the increased turnout in elections at various levels, which is due exclusively to a legislative (consider it compulsory) way, often leads to completely opposite results in relation to those laid down in the electoral program according to their funding. But they still do not have a clear understanding of how this mechanism works.
But everything is quite simple. In society, there is always a group of "politically active" or "easily agitated" people who, like free electrons in inanimate matter, are very sensitive to all external influences. The analogy between the work of the collective mind and the mineral world in this context is not accidental. After all, the logical principle is embedded both in the conscious function of a person and in the legislative initiative of the entire universe, in which all the fundamental principles of the interaction of matter are worked out at the nanoscale, including the aspect of subtle energies related to the work of the human mind.
It turns out that any available information related to public life will be perceived by the above group as a call to action. And directing it in the right direction is even easier. After all, the vector of information impact, which excludes the right to choose, focuses only on the intensity of the impact. That is, if on all well-known information platforms the number of mentions, for example, of the name of Petro Poroshenko, exceeds this indicator of his opponent Volodymyr Zelensky, then the political rating of the latter will be inferior to the current president of Ukraine in approximately the same proportion.
But this would be possible only if that part of society "works", which can be compared with the free electrons of the mineral world. But under the condition that most of the country's population wants to express their will, not only the legislative (orderly) forecast interferes, but also the creative initiative, which is akin to chaotic manifestations. In this case, no one will be able to calculate the result, as was the case with all, for example, world economic crises, when it was chaos and uncontrollability of spontaneous social processes that led to completely unauthorized consequences.
Summarizing the above, it should be clearly understood that it is possible to calculate the consequences only if only the “controlled” part of society participates in the decision, which is sensitive to the initial message. In this case, it is possible to manage all the "democratic" processes as efficiently as possible.
