As far as I know sophism, pseudoscience, fraud, ideology, philosophy, theology, are just means of avoiding engaging in private (economy) and public markets (politics), in order to obtain something by stealing it rather than trading for it. This problem is undermining democracy.

@AlanLevinovitz @EPoe187 Good point. So what about ideological competition vs simple truth and reciprocity in everything? In other words what is the purpose of ideology other than power under democracy, philosophy other than power under aristocracy, religion in opposition to aristocracy? Why any of them?
