Non-comparable
With an election the majority wins.
It can flip flop.
Why not for a referendum?
And again. Both public votes, both for public opinion on how the government is to be run, both majority votes.
It's absolutely comparable by those variables at the least. Quit trying to stonewall and headsand.
Yes, I suppose we should just re-call the vote once an opinion polls shows a shift in public opinion. We'd get nothing done with constant referendums, so we vote, accept the result regardless of your since then enact the public's mandate
No no no silly!
Have a recall vote.
IF there is public petition to do so.
If the policy stands, no harm no foul, if it fails, democracy in action.
Democracy is a flawed system
If the majority NO LONGER wants the policy to go through, why stop them from voting against it?
Majority support is irrelevant
That's a violation of democracy,
So?
Democracy is a bad system
@Deleted User Of course it's flawed silly. All systems are flawed.
More flawed than others then @DrRisen
Democracy tends to be the one that garners the most power and strength based on how we stand today.
Now sit your ass down before democracy calls you a felon and invalidates your vote. <:really:591181753625083905>

It's an inferior system.
*superior
Technocracy is better
It is clearly the superior system. The word you are looking for is "better"
@DrRisen woah your arguments are so convincing
It's not an argument, it's a statement of fact.
Democracy is the most powerful governmental system in the word, end of story.
Technocracy is superior as it means government is controlled by specialists. I.e. the economy is controlled by economists not just any one who is elected.
/*better
Not superior
Power doesn't equal good @DrRisen
Did I say it did?
You know what I fucking mean
Humor me.
No you didn't. So Democracy has more power. Irrelevant. Technocracy is better.
Do you dispute that Technocracy is better?
I don't dispute it, nor do I endorse it, as that was not my point. @Deleted User
