"Majority beliefs" -- whatever they actually are, are not automatically synonymous with "truth" and "right".

But they are synonymous with the will of the majority in democratic elections. "Truth" and "right" are also not exclusive to elitist intellectuals.

People like to drag Michael Moore out as some kind of proof of their silliness. Lots of luck proving that more than 2% of Democrats payed any attention to him at all -

THe reason is that he had great influence in the demo strategy.
he was feted in the presidents box at the convention.
A lot of his talking points from the movie ended up being used word for word in the democratic campaign
