> it is discussion instigating

Not really. "Corruption" as the answer to why America doesn't have 25 Gbit internet is (a) mostly wrong and (b) useless in terms of developing next steps.

> the unstated conversation that needs to occur in public

Everyone is constantly talking about corruption. Pretending it's "unstated" is wrong. The conversation usually doesn't go anywhere because saying corruption with zero evidence is essentially useless for generating next steps. Maybe you're right. Maybe it leads to a wild-goose chase. Either way, insufficient to actually do anything with.



But the "everyone" is not the political leaders, and not officially, not in any forum that could do anything about said "corruption". It is literally a game of speaking about corruption only in venues where nothing can be done about said corruption. When Trump talks these issues, it's a projection of his own ideas and actions. The entire action of "discussion corruption" has been normalized as pointless, as you are advocating.

Plus, and this is huge: people cannot discuss anything materially important in any rational manner. They get emotional, they cannot control their thoughts, and all of that is manufactured in them by our society to impair action against our powerful manipulating organizations such as industries, political parties, and any collection of anyone that feels they can demand their wants or needs.
