Voting I think is a key step forward because it will result in more people being engaged in the process and in touch with things overall.
However it’s not the cure it is a step towards a cure. People want to stay in their bubble and create echo chambers with algorithms. People are finally getting fed up with politicians but in the US a huge issue is that our voting rate is terrible. Now people are mobilizing to vote and thus address the issues they feel they face.
There is a word for it "illusion of choice" :-)
