I've been thinking a lot about a conversation I had here, when I think @javabu.eth mentioned the majority of the masses that voted in last election don't really understand the policies they're voting for. Looking back to the last UK election, the majority of the populace voted for labour and had discussion few of my colleagues in the UK, they all seem convinced to the extent I became convinced as well, but few months down the line they lost conviction and I noticed the way they support labour reduced bit by bit, lately I noticed they kind of ignore most news about labour failures and they just move on from this, it's intriguing that after 6months they move and but those that voted against the party will have to bear the consequences till next election. Bringing this analogy to the America space, the majority clearly voted for Trump even tho I now agree with @javabu.eth that majority of the populace don't even understand some of the policies they voted for.

Trump will take charge in few days time, let's say after 1-2 years majority of the voters seem not to believe in the government again, everyone will have to suffer the same fate till next 4 years, I think this part of democracy is really scary for me. An uninformed majority can actually ruin the lives of informed minority, not that I have issues with democracy, I still believe it's the best system of government ever, but this aspect of democracy really worries me. The question is how can the "more informed minority" educate the "less informed majority"?

What is this education you keep talking about? Who is more educated and about what?

Look at it this way, you're obviously versed in economics and monetary aspects. Now, look at the congress approach to crypto. the majority believe it's a scam while a few minority see the potential, but when it's put to a vote at the house, the less informed majority wins due to the numbers. That's just an aspect of democracy I'm pointing at. Sometimes, it's not even that ppl are less informed but some ignore knowledge in their face

you mean Butthole and Fart arent scams ? Degen isnt a scam ? bullshit its 99% scam. Because the people in crypto suck to be honest. This whole "we hate VCs" narrative is beyond stupid. Sure we all hate VCs but Butthole isnt the answer. Hyperliquid is
