Just cos majority shares an opinion it doesn’t mean that opinion is somehow “good”. Further more, some advanced ideas will stay in minority since the majority

Just cos majority shares an opinion it doesn’t mean that opinion is somehow “good”.
Further more, some advanced ideas will stay in minority since the majority will not be able to comprehend them.
Basically the rule of majority will generally breed mediocrity in my opinion.
- bruce511 4y ago>> Just cos majority shares an opinion it doesn’t mean that opinion is somehow “good”. Exactly. For a couple hundred years _after_ US independence, the majority considered women to be second-class people. (quite a few still do.) >> Basically the rule of majority will generally breed mediocrity in my opinion. Mediocrity is the _goal_ - its not a bug its a feature. Spare us the rule of a person who considers them self to be exceptional. Alas these days, democracy would do well to get mediocrity. Judging by some of the candidates in the last election, mediocre would have been a step up. (fortunately the voting public seemed to agree with me.)
