It could be possible for a council of people to be formed with standards of education necessary to be obtained before voting in. They then have ultimate power, and all one needs to do is prevent corruption. An oligarchy then. You're so original. If you're going to call us stupid for believing in democracy, at least admit that what you really hate is freedom for those below you, whom you claim to care for. I dislike freedom for anyone, when that freedom is misused; which, depending upon who you are, you usually will. This misuse is the problem, not who you are, however, the only real way to solve the misuse is to brainwash people. An oligarchy and a dictatorship are basically the same. Thing is, I don't believe anyone is any better or worse on any other level than education. Each person may receive education differently, and there are many different sorts, but that is basically the only way to be worth anything from where I see it. If "those below" me are those less educated, then, yes, I dislike the misuse of freedom done by those. However, insofar as trying to educate them, and therefore bring them up from knowing no better, I would say I do indeed care; and if they don't want to be educated, then my care is obviously wasted and will remain with them no more. By "misuse of freedom" you clearly mean that they vote against what you think is the best option. That's saying that anybody who disagrees with your opinions is a fool. By extension, you refuse to accept other people's ideas or even entertain them. You are by definition pigheaded.

By your own logic, as you are apparently not quite working age, I am a superior being through my more complete (private, mind you) education. Therefore you cannot be arguing with me without being a hypocrite.

You want to take away freedom from those who you think are using it wrong. You, a pubescent English girl. I mean seriously. Come back to trying to overturn a beloved system and oppress the little guy when you're a little older, at least! Don't come back at all to it, actually. Literally nobody smart would support you. Misuse of freedom doesn't mean voting. In voting, they're idiots too most of the time, and whether or not they vote for the right cause doesn't depend upon whether it's right or not. Take Brexit. To me, the right choice. Majority of people who voted for it shouldn't have been voting, but that doesn't mean that the statement was wrong.

Am I lesser? I have yet to see that.

Ah, so I'm the hypocrite for being a bigot. Right. Not that you just suggested I was an idiot for no reason other than disagreeing or anything, suggesting not only the latter statement was a complete reversal of the truth, but also maybe the former was too. I don't care who loves what. If that thing doesn't work, it's bad. Nowadays people are brainwashed to be oblivious to the flaws of democracy, but they're there alright.
