Martin Gurri (@mgurri), author of The Revolt of the Public, joins Lucas Bagno and Ian Cinnamon to discuss: - The genesis of the thesis about the revolt of the public while Martin was working at the CIA analyzing communications as social media and blogging began to take off. - The challenges to authority that the free flow of information has presented and why those societies that allow for open communication have been winning. - The internet’s reactionary moment and whether there will be a “revolt of the revolt.” - Why he says that China is “the 20th century gone digital” and why he thinks that will not last. - His belief that democracy will survive and why he thinks that the “psychotic conditions” in American society will not last. - Why elites need to have humility about their ability to solve problems in society.
