<3i don't think one needs to be able to impart her/his share of wisdom on the fly like voltaire did in his heyday.. the joke you get on the way home is not better than the one you got during the show, it is just a specific kind of joke, nothing more.
Anything worth saying that has not already been said is worth saying too late..
(if it takes you a week a month a year a decade to figure something out.. who cares? .. you should still share what you figured out).
Truth remains truth even if seemingly universally ignored (insert saddadface)
Sorry about the verbal diarrhea but i love this particular semantic question. i'll go in the corner now and shut the f up so,
hopefully,
everyone else is enticed and chimes in on this vital subject / issue <3

I think this amount of knowledge is not very useful to you because it is an extremely small amount of knowledge. You basically know a few superficial facts about something. What are you supposed to extrapolate from that?
If you want that knowledge to convert to something usable, you would need to delve deeper and read more about it, not just journalism but about history, economic systems, religious values, etc. Then maybe you have some appreciation for differences in political systems and sympathy for other people that could convert into changing how you interact with people or vote in your local political system.
When you just know a surface detail like this, it's like trying to speak a language with only 3 words. Better than 0, I guess.

Yeah the title was just tongue-in-cheek, it's not a good example of knowledge really or even powerlessness. I do read history and textbooks to try and get real background knowledge but it's a slow endeavor.
