It is absolutely questionable that you show to believe to have a capacity for judgement adequate to know the "truth" and be able to impose it to others (also) on that basis.
It's called democracy. We assume everyone +18 has this "capacity" and as such impose the will of the majority on others. Has been going on for some decades already...
And has to deal with the issue that people in general have a strongly bad judgement owing to lack of resources to acquire the instruments (time is always relatively scarce), complicated by the fact that people in the lower side of the "distribution" of the abilities lack the awareness of their inadequacy.
Consistently, "democracy" has a strong connotation of negative value, which also implies a countervalue: "better than other systems", which does contain its big "though" - making evident that common forms are suboptimal compromises, in light of the inadequacy mentioned above.
