'''Mediocracy''', or explicitly '''Rule of the Mediocre''', is a form of government where a class of mediocre individuals are more dominant in society. While this ideology is mostly a joke, one could make the argument that the most average person in society is its best representative and as such should control the nation. It could be said that it is a less extreme form of [[File:Kak.png]] [[Kakistocracy]] (which wants society to be ruled by the least competent, as opposed to just the mediocre). |
