Then campaign for election. The democratic experiment failed because people believe the government is a separate entity from them. Once you get involved you will see how complicated everything actually is. It turns out that people vote and do things purely from belief, regardless of if it's wrong. Therefore good policy gets labeled "leftist" or "conservative", and the private interests that profit from the chaos know how to prey on beliefs far better than you can.

So the door for criticism is shut and only the people inside the government can possibly know the intricacies and therefore have the right to criticize. This is also a classic defeatist perspective - we can never fix this, it is too complicated.
