Democracy is genius. Why? Because it’s a channel for the emergence of group conscience, a place where the best of who we are can come together with the best of who others are to create a wave of collective wisdom.

That’s why any undermining of our democracy - from political gerrymandering to voter suppression to the dominance of money and party manipulation of the process – should be seen as an attack on our most basic freedom and strongly resisted.

In Judaism it says every generation must rediscover God for itself. Similarly, every generation of Americans must re-discover the importance of democracy for ourselves. When we fail to psychologically and emotionally embrace its importance, others can inevitably begin to steal it

Democracy is a tool so 51% of people can trample the rights of 49% and elected leaders can promise whatever they want with no accountability to their voters once elected. Democracy is an evil institution that denies us our freedom and makes us select rulers for our neighbors.

There is no collective wisdom when there is a widespread programming of the masses. The programmers recognize each other. The programmers rely on lies. The programmers perceive honest individuals, as being stupid

Democracy does not create wisdom.

Considering Generation Z, I would say collective stupidity would be more accurate.
