democracy vs stupidity

i think its childish to only support democracy only when its the party you like and whinge about the population being idiots

but i do worry for what the public are voting for, do they not even know how much of a pointless culture war it is instead of actually improving the country in any tangible meaningful way

i love democracy but perhaps we should have a basic test on how politics in your country work before youre allowed to vote, as unbiased questions as possible that arent opinions and are fact ideally. because if you look at the data (from yougov specifically) youll see that it tends to be the less educated that vote for parties such as republican and reform UK

hopefully im not alone in despising right wing populism with the likes of farage and trump
