That's exactly why the founding fathers, based and red pilled as they were, did not make a democracy. They made a republic. Hell, they specifically mentioned that democracy is a bad idea, for the same reason you mentioned - half of the population is below average.

Would you rather celebrate Good Friday or celebrate Bicycle Day? by Gracehoper in AskSaidIt

I'd rather celebrate bicycle day. Not because I'm edgy and atheist, but because I always kind of felt like celebrating Good Friday was sort of an insult to Christ.

Like, celebrate the resurrection, by all means. But the idea of "hey, as a way of displaying my affection for Christ, I'm going to celebrate his brutal murder." never really sat well with me, ya know?
