Sobre IBD

Politicians manipulating information for their own agendas and justifying controversial actions is an unfortunate reality that undermines trust in government and the political process.The impacts of these tactics are far-reaching. By controlling and manipulating information flows, politicians can obscure truth, avoid accountability, and reinforce partisan divisions and ideological entrenchment. Public trust and confidence in democratic institutions takes a major hit when people feel they can’t rely on authoritative sources of information.Citizens are then left to navigate a confusing landscape of competing narratives and struggle to determine objective reality. This vacuum allows polarizing misinformation and conspiracy theories to proliferate. Uncertainty and disillusionment open the door for democratic backsliding.Ultimately, when politicians prioritize their agendas over truth and transparency, it severely undermines people’s ability to make informed decisions and hold leaders accountable through electoral means. While a degree of spin is expected in politics, outright deception poses an existential threat to democratic governance.
