Only superior wisdom and inferior foolishness?

Generally average. There are several points worth considering:

Get personal information based on social media (even if you don't surf the Internet very much), target it accurately, or even lie to you.

Irrationality triumphs over rationality.

Too much bureaucracy in the EU? How much should be devoted to economic interaction rather than political establishment? Or: do the economy first, then do politics?

Britain has always been skeptical of Europe, but its withdrawal this time will help the EU to unite. Moreover, the pain of Brexit has a warning effect: if there is a problem, it should be solved slowly, and it will be a matter of fact. A comprehensive withdrawal is neither easy nor cost-effective.

The lower level (low versus high, bottom versus top) is naturally not "rational", as it has always been. The problem now is that the top executives have no vision and only know that they enjoy the benefits of globalization. In this sense, the people...the Lord is good, it is good! The lower level has a channel to speak and participate in decision-making.

Superior wisdom and inferior stupidity are inseparable, right? right? The history of human civilization seems to support this argument . However, the situation described in the previous paragraph also exists. So, checks and balances are king . For example, in the US presidential election, on the one hand, one person, one vote, on the other hand, is a winner-take-all at the state (should be translated as "state") level.

Brexit quotes

  • Dominic Cummings: [scene cuts between the two offices of Vote Leave and Vote Remain as they write out strategy] We also know that the other side are gonna run a campaign the way that campaigns have been run for pretty much the last 70 years. They're gonna fight from the center, and they're gonna make it about jobs and the economy.

    Andrew Cooper: We focus on the economy and jobs. The message: leaving risks both.

    Craig Oliver: Clinton '92. Best campaign ever. "It's the economy, stupid".

    Andrew Cooper: You define your opponent as the riskier option, and though the change candidate might initially poll well, come election day the nerves kick in. Voters revert back to center. Law of political science - if the status quo are ahead before the campaign begins, which we are, they always win on the day. So...

    Douglas Carswell: So, what's our answer?

    Dominic Cummings: Tzu's "The Art of War". If we fight them on home terrain, they will win. So what we need to do is lead them to the ninth battlefield. The deadly ground where no one expects to find themselves. Outcome? *They* perish.

    Victoria Woodcock: Which means?

    Dominic Cummings: You reverse the proposition. We make *them* the risky option. To stay is to risk losing more of the things we cherish - we're asking voters not to reject the status quo, but to return to it, to independence. How much does it cost us each week to be members of the EU?

    Daniel Hannan: In the region of...

    Dominic Cummings: What's our researcher's name?

    Matthew Elliott: Richard.

    Dominic Cummings: Ricardo, will you get me all the figures up for how much it costs to be members of the EU for a week? Largest one wins.

    Matthew Elliott: Make sure it's verifiable!

  • Dominic Cummings: It's not rocket science, it's simple. There are three types of voter. Those certain to vote to exit, that's one third. Well, they're in the bag, so ignore them. Those certain to vote to stay, that's another third, and we can't touch them so fuck 'em. The last third: "I would like to leave, but I'm worried about what the effect will be to jobs and living standards". *These* are the only people that we need to care about. And trust me, the others will be after exactly the same bunch.

    [cut to Vote Remain offices]

    Craig Oliver: Now, these are who will decide the result. The "Hearts versus Heads" and the "Disengaged Middle". 34% of the electorate.
