While it's the best we could create, but that does not mean that it's anywhere close to being perfect and deserves to be trusted automatically.

Skepticism is exactly what makes democracy working. Blind trust is what allows bad actors to transform a democracy into a dictatorship.

You speak as if past dictators were not democratically elected or journalists never uncovered corruption in government and institutions.

There's a difference between "skepticism" and raving fucking loonery, and 99.99% of what's proliferating online nowadays is the latter. Shit like that also transforms democracies into dictatorships, at least as much as "blind trust" does.
