"In 1985, when Americans were asked how many close friends they had, the most common answer was "three". In 2004, the most common answer was "zero". We now have fewer friends across class, racial, economic, and political lines, because we have fewer friends -- period. And as you just discovered for yourself, the fewer "repeat interactions" there are, the more distrust will spread."

""miscommunication" is such an interesting barrier to trust:

a little bit of it leads to forgiveness, but too much and it leads to widespread distrust!

I think our modern media technology, as much as it's helped us increase communication... has increased our miscommunication much more. "

Also do they tend to trust police more then the legal or the political system

Knowing that means knowing that ppl are right now in the "perfect" mindset to step by step build up a police state and ppl would even trust it

In germany for example is a new law that can imprison anyone even if they didn't infringe any law.
Just the potential is already enough that you can "rest" forever

@paulfree14 I'm confused. How can you trust the police and the legal system more than the political?

After all, the political is passing the laws which the other two enforce. 🤔

@escapist
the reason might be that ppl got trained to believe that the police is 'your friend and helper'.
Also they might believe that there aren't really any law changes happening towards the police. A least no bad once, cause the police is here to help and protect yourself.

@paulfree14 Experienced in the flesh. Tough lesson learnt.

@paulfree14 Hard to make friends when people attempt to sit alone in public transport and always walk around with headphones.

It's a trap of our making...but it serves certain interests well.
