You’d expend effort to prevent people from learning? A democracy requires an educated electorate, so you are anti-democracy?

I won't prevent people from learning rather I won't force them to learn if that what they prefer.

Democracy doesn't require an educated electorate, it only require majority. If the majority is 'stupid' (stupid is relative) then stupid it is.

So do you think putting a link to more info next to a presidents tweet is “forcing” people to learn?

A democracy ruled by an ignorant majority winds up as authoritarian, but you already knew what that quote I paraphrased means. Keep deflecting.

No, unless you force somebody to put that link.

If majority wants authoritarian then authoritarian it is, thats democracy.
