I’ve been wondering—there seems to be a fair number of LessWrongians who are revolted by democracy, and I’ve never been sure why.
I don’t think I’m revolted by democracy. I do currently disbelieve in democracy.
But I said I wanted to talk about democracy not that I have proof that it sucks more than anything else ever. I don’t think I’ve so far strawmaned how polite educated opinion thinks a particular brand of democracy should work (though I’ll admit I’m not done).
