"Greater say on for example how the government spend its money" this is pointless lmao

NAh Kizza

one of many examples and it shows that literal equal representation is retarded

see the issue is you are thinking direct democracy, direct democracies don't work

Did the majority of the UK vote/support joining the EEC in 1972??

"yeah fuck fixing that bridge, this city street has pot holes that need filling"

<:pepelaugh:544857300179877898>

You need some form of representation however direct democracy should be invoked on soul or constitutional changing events- ie BRexit

@Storin Name one example of it not working??

You do realize the citizens don't directly decide the amount of resources being spent on infrastructure development in different areas, right?

you realize that giving more representation to people from cities by definition means the people in rural areas have less representation

Direct democracy is actual democracy. Representative democracy is neither representative nor democracy.

and thus less say in reource allocation right?

No it isn't.

literally how for example state legislatures work

Its weird that you are picking this hill to die on, why dont you study greek democracy then come back to me <:PepeLaugh:565528391336329216>

and in the greater congrss thats how representatives work

Well of course, because that's obviously how it works

and youre retarded for wanting it to work otherwise

xD

@Storin Except the definition of democracy from the greeks is power of the people which means MOB RULE.

No it isnt

Yeah I already lost interest in this

This is pointless

because you know youre being dumb

Read how they actually conducted their votes- not everyone got a say

and you want to leave while the getting is good

The US is a Democratic Republic

@Storin well i mean only the upper crust of athenian society could vote anyway\

If you gonna come in here and quote Greek "democracy" you better be educated on it kizza <:PepeLaugh:565528391336329216>

@Storin Again fake democracy.

Well yes actually, I don't want to ruin my precious record of 0 internet arguments lost

and they still had leaders

and orators

Or aistrocrat/autocracy voting.

Lmao are you actually being serious?

Luci has pretty much already said what I was gonna say to show you are wrong

Example:
A nation consists of two areas.
There are 100 people in area A.
There are 1000 people in area B.
There is an election coming up.

An area A man wants to lead the country to develop a space program, for the glory of the nation.

An area B man wants to... exterminate all the area A men and subjugate their women... for the... glory of the nation.

This is an absurd, hyperbolic example of why the electoral college exists.

@Storin Remind us again where the word comes from again??

we most revolt against the subscribers!

that's stupid
