What Now? with Trevor Noah

CHAPTER

Technology, Politics, and Accountability

This chapter humorously dissects a recent incident involving a political figure and a self-driving car, highlighting public double standards in the perception of technological ignorance. The discussion spans themes of political personas, accountability, and the psychological nuances behind voter behavior, all while critiquing the tendency to excuse problematic actions. Through satire and reflection, the speakers emphasize the need for holding individuals in power accountable rather than attributing their behavior to psychological factors.
