Democracy? What you are actually referring to is the right of freedom of speech.
That right, like all of them, come both with the good and the bad. Which the framers of the constitution recognized.

My wife is constantly nagging me about the fact that I have absolutely no clue (nor interest) in what happens in the society around me.
I've tried to explain to her that that is a conscious decision - and this is the very reason!
And I do actually think it's a bliss. All you ever hear about on the news is chaos and disaster.

I know for a fact how ill informed news etc are. My uncle is a mechanic/engineer very high up in his department/field for a famous car company. One day he was at a release in a small town for one of the opposition's vehicles. In this commotion one of the reporters asked him if they can take a picture of him and his wife at the vehicle, reluctantly he agreed and then the person asked his name.
Next morning my uncle awakes to his boss' call asking him about the insanity that begotten him (comically luckily). So to his great surprise my uncle saw his name next to a photo in the newspaper with this written underneath it: "Mr and Mrs _ can be seen here at the release of the new (car). Mr _ confirmed he was really looking forward to test driving the car and says he liked the new sleek design"

My horological hero is George Daniels who died a couple of years ago. His co-axial escapement was the first real innovation in watchmaking since the time of John Harrison, that is, in over 250 years. Yet, his death was mostly unreported in the media. If you buy any modern Omega watch, Daniels' co-axial is what drives the gearing with unparalleled precision and timing. I had the privilege of meeting him once and he was a big fan of BMW bikes.

When was the last time you had to change a fuse? Last night a bulb blew in one of my lamps, on replacing the lamp didn't work. This morning I changed the fuse, none in the house, and when I thought about it I could not think the last time I had to replace a fuse.
Yes, I checked the old bulb in a different lamp and it [0] didn't work and [1] rattled when shook.

Couple o' months ago - it's an old house, and the fuse box is mostly just that: real wire fuses. One of the halogen spots went, and took the fuse with it. Now all my spots have been changed to LEDs and I don't have that problem any more.

We have switch fuses in our box, so you never have to change a wire - or very, very rarely.
About five-six years ago, we had a problem with the fuse box in Budapest, but that was fuped wiring and needed an electrician - it was 50:50 which side of the fuse box needed work and if it should be the electricity company or me to do the work, so I let him make the call rather then me go boom.

The sparky fitted a switch fuse as a plug-in replacement for one circuit when we had the bathroom converted (since it was a new shower installation it had to be done to building regs) but the others are the old bakelite two-prongs-and-a-bit-of-wire jobbies. I'm kinda scared to think about upgrading the whole fuse box as that would involve modern building regs as well, and that would probably mean a complete overhaul of the house electrics. They aren't broken, so I ain't fixing them...
