    And politicians think removing their best option is a solution?

    Because it gets them votes. The politicians aren’t the problem, they merely reflect public attitudes.

        What makes you think that the average politician is actually a leader, rather than just a follower who pays attention to polls? That would imply they have a spine, which seems unlikely.

          You have a good point, actually 🤣

          But people prefer to follow the one who “knows everything” and that never shows any kind of doubt or insecurity.

          C’mon, precisely because they’re in the “Dunning-Kruger” sector of the bell curve is why they can have a big influence in a lot of people.
