Doyle;
Agreed. And further, parties have evolved over time. The sort of
mass mobilization that happened in Russia, or China, can't happen in a
like manner in the U.S. or other developed countries. The technology
add ons shift how people connect. Why have mass demonstrations in the
streets where a crowd is pointed at one single spot on the avenue to
hear a list of speakers? Why not just have podcasts, and videos of
speakers from any location?
Or why not use cellphones to bind people together in ways that are
visually invisible? So that crowd control for the police is made much
more difficult, but the crowd is doing mass things as well?
thanks,
Doyle Saylor
