Political participation has migrated from the sharing of opinions in public forums, newspapers, on the radio, television and in street demonstrations to touch screens.
Demonstrations certainly remain, but this time they are provoked and commanded from smartphones. Politics is no longer scary. Clicks on the screen are seen as without risk. So now everything, regardless of remarks, slips of the tongue or swearwords, can be “cooked” into politics.
