Message: <blockquote data-quote="Tiger" data-source="post: 116926" data-attributes="member: 353">There is a clear decline of Statesmanship in the ‘Age of Spectacle’. The current US election feels like it’s being conducted by characters from an episode of the ‘Simpsons’. Once upon a time, leadership required something more than charisma, more than a cleverly crafted soundbite or a viral video. The statesman—now an endangered species—was not merely a politician, but a man of substance, deeply rooted in principles, faith, and a sense of duty to his people. Today, that ideal has been buried beneath the weight of the digital spectacle, where truth is sacrificed on the altar of expediency, and political power is conferred not to the wise but to the most visible.Michael Hoffman II, in his critique of modern society, spoke of psycho-spiritual warfare—the deliberate manipulation of the human mind and soul, reducing the populace to passive consumers of illusion. In our era, this warfare has reached its zenith through social media and its progeny, TikTok. Instead of being the battleground of ideas, our political sphere has been dumbed down, catering to short attention spans, emotional manipulation, and superficial engagement. The medium has not only become the message, but also the means by which democracy has been hollowed out.</blockquote>
