Post Cynical, Good Faith Communication
To be post cynical, you have to know that other people can be post cynical. Because i have to believe i can have a relationship with trust, of trust. If everybody else is cynical, you can't. And so what i would say is post cynical, good faith communication is necessary for something like a democratic republic. Anything that has participatory governments and is not just ha people being ruled requires the people being able to develop that. That has to become the centre of the values of culture then develops that in people and checks it and reinforces it.
