IIUC,
the US had/has a Communist party, and you could probably sell copies of Pravda;
while the USSR had no liberal party, and it's doubtful you could have a copy of the NYT.

With every person dedicated to getting more people onto Linux Distros, Fediverse, and ATProtocol apps that just shines the light more and makes it a lot harder for them to spread lies or project their "power"
Linux Distros for Desktop:
Linux Mint Pop!_OS (Should be called Cosmic OS, sounds better) Fedora Workstation Asahi Fedora Remix
Mobile Android Alt Distros:
LineageOS GrapheneOS
For Fediverse Apps:
Mastodon Pixelfed PeerTube Lemmy Diaspora Friendica
For ATProtocol Apps:
Bluesky Pinksky Flashes Spark
Let's spread the word ladies and gentlemen!!

I got banned from Reddit for suggesting doing what the French did. I got banned for that suggestive language despite a corporation having no qualms in harboring actual Nazi's who spread their message through loose doublespeak.
Free speech is not a right on social media, especially a privately owned forum that wants you to stay longer on their site for advertisement money.

"Public opinion exists only where there are no ideas."- Oscar Wilde.
I think public opinion is overrated. Too many fools in the public. Just look at MAGA idiots in US.

I believe public opinion is fairly left leaning. Just looks how popular Bernie and AOC are. It's just that corporate media discourse is very good at suppressing left wing views.

What I mean is taking the opinion of the public seriously. I mean, people believe in a lot of weird things and that includes me. As an example, lot of people are anti-vaxxers, that doesn't actually make vaccines dangerous. Should their opinion matter? If so, how much?
I think the quote is meant to consider that sometimes we must ignore public opinion and do what is right. But, I agree some nuance could be lost. But sadly, the quote has no context because it is from a list of quotes Oscar Wilde wrote. Maybe, we should supply our own nuance.?
