"Trust, I think, is to democracy what fear is to autocracy. It's a really important sort of glue that keeps our systems functioning. There's been a decline and there continues to be a deep decline, and therefore a rise in cynicism. That's not a 'snap, one moment democracy's broken' measure; it's an erosion, it's sort of a termites-in-the-floorboards measure." -- Ed Luce, on Stay Tuned with Preet, 2019-03-14 [I can't find a link directly to the episode description, nor a transcript (yet?), just listen-now and download buttons.
