Unix fans have been claiming that since ... unix was invented, I think. Certainly, they were vocal about it before the PC was popular.

Drugs won, simple as that. As did prescription drugs.
Democracy requires a people who understand the consequences. In the "free" West, it is about popularity, which is bought.

Yeah, I need to read those books, but currently still doing Raymond Feist series.
But it is; it is a popularity contest, bought in the media, with none of the voters actually looking at what they voting for. That's not a democracy as Plato defined it, it just acts like one.

There's been some major progress on that front in the past 30 or so years. I know, because I lived it.

So have I. There may be better treatments, but there is no cure. Even these treatments only work for a limited time.

I'm guessing you're referring to George W. Bush. In that vein there's a singer/songwriter by the name James McMurtry, who said this when speaking of how G.W. pronounced 'Nukular'. Quote: A good 'ol boy can become an intellectual, but an intellectual cannot become a good 'ol boy.

Very small children do (or used to) play a game called hot potato.
The basic play of the game is to pass around and object, referred to as the potato. It is passed around furiously. Meanwhile, in the background, some sort of time span is being measured by (for example) music or a person who's neither playing nor watching. At any particular time, more or less at random but subject to human whim, they may stop. If you have the hot potato when the interval abruptly ends you are "out" and play continues without you.
This goes on as the players keeping being culled for being stuck with the potato until the last two. When the music stops, the one who got rid of the potato last wins - and the one left holding it, the loser.
Perhaps it's not played by current generations and thus they don't understand the concept?
This, both as a prediction and the analogy to a game for small children, is what bitcoin is all about.*
