It’s true you can’t have a functioning #democracy without an enlightened population.
So what would an elite looking to abolish democracy do?
They would seed programs aiming to dumb down people’s mind.
Democracy isn’t the problem, the desire to destroy its essence is.
Idealistic nonsense
Nope, corruption has always subverted democratic systems that aimed to be truly democratic. What democratic systems need is an effective built-in anti-corruption mechanism.
Also, I’m always interested to understand what better alternative those who critic #democracy as a governance system propose. Usually, they don’t have a more desirable alternative to offer.
Democracy works far better when it's actually limited by a constitution and the state can't print money. I'd give that a try. Otherwise universal suffrage makes everything retarded because it makes the votes of the stupid lazy and otherwise equal to those of the good and great people.
Had enough of the equality bullshit
