      But the majority of common people vote against it or don’t believe in democracy to start with. Honestly a real conundrum.

        I seriously have no idea where this started. For the vast majority of my life democracy was something that everyone fiercely believed in, and would die to protect. Then completely out of the blue people’s attitudes started radically changing. Much of it must be astroturfing.
