Reform voters are thick because they can't say what their policies are.

Green voters are thick because the Green Party is clearly insane.

Voters of moderate parties are thick because why would you want more of the same old bullshit?

Non voters are thick because you should take part in democracy you idiot!

Have I covered everyone?

"The best argument against democracy is a 5 minute conversation with the average voter."

Well, it's a fact that the world is not full of Einsteins.
Most of us are not that bright. I certainly wish I was more intelligent.

Someone once got very angry with me because I said that almost half of the adult population are of below average intelligence 😂

I think we all struggle to see things from others’ perspectives. So it is easy to dismiss others as stupid or uninformed. In the end what I see is everyone trying to promote the interests of themselves or their group. Perfectly rational behaviour from all concerned.

Obviously.

If you all don’t vote for the right party you are too stupid and shouldn’t be allowed to vote.

The right party being…

But ir is on mn where a lot of poster's need everyone else to do do their thanking for them, men, the media, 'society'

Not everyone is thick. It’s just the people who don’t agree with me. Obviously. 🙄

Seriously I actually wish we could all just stop insulting each other for having different opinions.

Politics is inherently divisive. Everyone has to be for or against loads of stuff.
I struggle to maintain a solid opinion on things - certainly not enough to argue for or against. (I know that is a weakness).
