Possibly but the vast vast majority of them are people that go through relating to the world superficially and by emotion.

It’s a lesson nobody wants to acknowledge of what the end result is in democracy otherwise known as mobocracy. You reach a point where everything is decided this way. Whip up emotionally with PR a bunch of people up over a subject get them to vote the way you want on that subject. Then feed them pittances of their own money (taxes) back to them. They’ll even vote their own demise if you package it right. The Founding Fathers knew this that’s why they designed a republic with democratic elements. We started forgetting that lesson almost from the beginning. The tipping point was the 16th & 17th Amendments, Wilson & FDR administrations
