@ChrisMayLA6 As an American, it is my blood creed to make fun of the British at every given opportunity.
“Our analysis of the WVS shows precisely this. Gen Z are the least likely to think we even currently live in a democracy”
That isn’t even the half of it.
Only 40% of surveyed Brits believe your country is governed democratically.
Despite the disapproval ratings and that less than half of people believe it’s a democracy to begin with, I’m sure they only want it to “work better”.

@ChrisMayLA6 also, this survey only applies to British youth, who are inherently retarded on account of the fact that they are British.

As an erstwhile educator, I'm going to refute that generality on the basis of 25 years experience of teaching young people...

@ChrisMayLA6 the form of the government is irrelevant to it stealing from you.
Democracy is retarded, just like voters.
If we’re to be forced to have “democracy”, I don’t want it to “work better”, I want retards (<115 IQ), women, and first+second generation imports to be ineligible to vote.
Emeritus Prof Christopher May
So it was widely reported that around half of young people are distrustful of democracy, and relaxed about the prospects of dictatorship or autocracy.... well, it turns out, while that was a good story, that was exactly what it is; a story.
Certainly young people may not think democracy works that well for them, but that's not the same as rejecting it; what they want is for it to work better!
So let's get on with improving democracy...
