One Response to Enrichment – something to watch and discuss. Why is populism on the rise?

  1. Mikka Jacobs says:

    In one of their earlier episodes, Campbell read out a tweet that said, “voting for a populist party is like diving head first into an empty swimming pool because you’re angry there is no water in it.” A creative but concerning metaphor that captures how populists are often the loudest voices on people’s problems, yet offer zero solutions. Could the solution to this problem lie in the education system? And is it possible to combat it through the media, or will populism inevitably win out due to the very profit-driven nature of today’s news and reporting?
