This is the problem everywhere. Pretty widely held that a democracy of morons doesn’t work. What else is a marketplace of ideas if not voting in favor of ideas with identity formation and in-group affiliation. There’s a few ways morons respond. They don’t which is a type of response. They lash out or laugh off what you’re saying because they don’t want to contend with it intellectually. or they become curious because they have the humility to admit that they don’t know everything. I hope you are not emblematic of this community.
