Profiles in Ignorance by Andy Borowitz (2022)
The prolific and gifted satirist, Andy Borowitz, performs a masterful deconstruction on the how the United States of Hypocrisy has accelerated ādumbwardsā over the past fifty years with our elected officials, directly related to the rise of television, cable networks, and the internet, as much as how Americans consume those media. His three phasesāRidicule, Acceptance, and Celebrationāare sound, and directly relate to the voting public on a psycho-emotional level. One in five Americans have difficulty reading at a basic skill level (https://nces.ed.gov/pubs2022/2022004.pdf), but sadly, quality education for allālike Borowitz and many like him (including me) mistakenly assume to be the best way to raise us out of this Age of Willful Ignoranceāis not true. Too many people with education vote against their own interests, falling prey to the sirensā songs and dog-whistles of whatever tunes fuel their emotional fires, treating politics like mindless sporting events, and politicians like professional wrestlers in spandex tights. From the deified empty-vessel of Ronald Reagan to the frat-house buffoonery of George āDubyaā Bush to the aberrant narcissism, bloated ego, and pathological liar of T-Dawg, we are neck-deep in trouble as this fragile Republic frays to its limits.Ā
As I recently dove deep into David Pepperās Laboratories of Autocracy, each of us must take actions to stop this grave assault on democracy, and Borowitz agrees. āPolitical hobbyismā no longer works. We need smart, educated, worldly people leading us (not those who simply claim to be the smartest people on the planet), and they need the support of all of us. While school grades donāt always matter, intellectual curiosity certainly does. We now face a loud-mouthed fringe that is anti-intellectual, anti-science, anti-expert, and anti-environmental, reinforced by bottomless echo-chambers of disinformation thanks to an unregulated internet. Iāve written this before, but Iād really like to see a true accounting of every candidate for public office. This means school transcripts, a detailed resume with references, complete tax records, absolute transparency with income, bank accounts, and stock portfolios, oneās history with political issues including their voting history as public figures, etc. Until such a simple and straightforward approach is taken, we have to do the research on our own and eliminate the wingnuts and racists, the pathological liars and grifters, the ignoramuses and industry sock-puppets. Itās hard work, but I believe democracy is worth it. As someone who works in healthcare, as an Iraq veteran, as the son of a Vietnam veteran, I am aware of the titanic hypocrisies, inequalities, and disparities in this nation. I challenge you all to be aware of them too.Ā
