Brexit. Trump. Ford Nation. In this timely book, David Moscrop asks why we make irrational political decisions and whether our stone-age brains can process democracy in the information age.
In an era overshadowed by income inequality, environmental catastrophes, terrorism at home and abroad, and the decline of democracy, Moscrop argues that the political decision-making process has never been more important. In fact, our survival may depend on it.

Too Dumb for Democracy?
Too Dumb for Democracy by David Moscrop, a @goose_lane publication, is an amazing book!!
Making political decisions is no small task, yet being informed and making rational decisions is more important than ever. This book highlights how different influences in our lives can change our political opinions, and how working together to make good decisions can have a massive impact on humanity.
David Moscrop writes a really good book. He makes big ideas in politics, history, and other subjects seem small, bite sized, and easier to comprehend. I was very surprised at just how well David Moscrop can explain hard concepts and ideas. He dives through so many different aspects involved in politics in this one small book, from fake news to how right before elections can really swing the voters.
I love politics. Honest to god. But sometimes, when I’m reading a book on politics and it’s referencing 3 different stories and scandals that I’ve never heard of, it can be very hard to read. David Moscrop fully explains what he’s talking about, and gives background on the references he’s making, which is just another thing to love about this book.
I recommend this book.
