Do you think the internet helps or hurts people understanding and the entire political process?

I really think the internet, social media, everything is really hurting people's understanding of what is actually going on politically and hurts the political process. I see very little actual discussion even in real life it is brought down to the slogans strewn across the internet and motofakes. Unfortunately I see people talk in person like they do online. There used to be exchanges of information, facts, and ideas. (and no 90% of what masks itself on the internet as information and facts is not it's just crap).

Your opinion is our political future as a country helped or hurt by internet?
Yes Tencenttax I am here but if you look at my statistics you will also notice it has taken me four and half years to reach level 5 which indicates I am not here all that much because I tire of it quickly.
