I really like this bit from the TV show Pantheon - kinda sorta talking about A1:
"Unfortunately,
I and the others like me
cannot be trusted with this power.
We are not ghosts.
We are not aliens.
We are not machines.
We are not gods.
We are you."

The problem repeats itself across issue after issue. Majorities support moderate gun qualifications, democratic norms, human decency, and climate action. Still, progress is blocked, with powerful systems like mainstream media firmly in reactionary hands. So how do we break the deadlock?
A huge 89% majority of global people [56% even in the United States] want stronger action to fight the #ClimateCrisis, but mistakenly believe they’re in a minority.
The “silent majority” for #ClimateAction needs to get loud.
People want action. Smart cities need to go much further, much faster.
