Democracy means you can just vote for the other guy next time if you disagree. It's designed to keep you from punishing the people committing treason or rising up and killing the king/tyrant like the old days. The people writing the bills and making the laws and pushing their agendas get to hide behind politicians and let the people think they had a say in the matter.
Yeah, I don't believe in universal suffrage democracy. Someone less informed, less capable, less intelligent and overall an inferior human to me shouldn't get equal say to myself in governing myself. The role of government must be extremely limited and it is way outside its justified realm of power.
You are right that this illusion of legitimacy due to democracy keeps many people satiated. The push of cultural marxism and the egalitarianism plague that has wrought its way into our culture is another product of this by giving people the illusion that each person should have an equal say in governing everyone else. There's a reason dictators still have elections because of how effective these democracies are at deflating the will of the people to rise up against tyranny.
