The point is that there is nothing magical or inherently virtuous about democracy. It's always been the best of a bad lot of alternatives, but that was before social media made it possible for bad-faith actors to exploit it so effectively.
Giving stupid people the same political power as everyone else has always been a bad idea, and now it amounts to a suicide pact.
