Joseph Kisarale delivers a deep exploration of the forces tearing America apart. He finds that democracy, which should serve all citizens, has instead left many unheard, neglected and disillusioned. This contributes to the rise of authoritarianism and how charismatic leaders, offering simple solutions to complex problems, appeal to those who have lost faith in the existing system. However, these promises often come at the cost of eroding democratic norms, silencing dissent, and consolidating power. Kisarale also covers how social media, sensationalist media coverage, and the spread of conspiracy theories have amplified distrust and deepened the cultural divides.
