People incorrectly praise democracy as if it's a system that constantly finds the right person with the right ideas.
But political democracy doesn't find the right and just and moral people.
All democracy can do is find the people who have the most popularity, not the right ethics.
Ethics and morals aren't defined by how many votes you get. You can have extreme immoral people continually getting elected, but democracy found the most popular person.
Two wolves and a lamb voting on what to eat for dinner is not a just system if you're a lamb. The wolves aren't moral because they win 2-1.
