Your logic can be used to justify literally any action by those in power who have access to secret information.
Rolling over and saying "our leaders have all the info so they know best!" as your rights are violated hasn't exactly been a winning strategy throughout history.
- tzs 13y agoYou seem to have misread my comment as saying something like "they know more than we do, so we should trust them", which is nowhere near what I actually said. What I actually said was that someone with more information might be better able to evaluate a situation and come to the right conclusion, and we should take this into account when evaluating the actions of those who have more information. This should be uncontroversial, unless one wishes to argue that less information puts one in a better position to make correct decisions.
