If you want a smaller government that functions and has the least amount of bureaucracy, a theory I have is that the best option is to become a citizen of a somewhat temperate country that has industrialized (ofc you have to be naturalized first; but that’s a separate topic)

The theory is - the more people you have to manage, the bigger the bureaucracy. Right, so focus on smaller countries, low population size or population density that have high GDP per capita — I’m thinking countries like Luxembourg, Lichtenstein, Singapore, Iceland, Andorra, San Marino, Malta, Ireland, Qatar, Bahrain, etc to a certain extent Norway, Denmark, Slovenia etc

Honestly I'm not sure 95% of people do any critical thinking on issues. They just parrot their "team" no matter what, same as football.  "Small government" is one such rallying cry, y'know, until the government is working on your team's pet projects.

deep seeded social instincts now manipulated by algos and messaging

The need to belong to a tribe is foundational to identity.

Why do you think that is? Do they not want to think on their own about a subject? Too much effort?
