It's in plain writ.
Direct democracy in the republic?
No democracy.
Only a constitutional republic.
words on parchment don't mean anything if you don't have people to represent it
Wait so how does that work>
so how is the government determined?
If presented, the people would prefer a constitutional republic.
It gives the people the power.
Government then become representational extensions of the people.
Wait but people don't vote?
Or the people act as their own representatives?
The people act as their own representation.
how do you stop representatives from becoming a class of their own?
Voting is pointless for the most part.
Nice
politics as an industry the way we see today?
We do away with representatives.
No the people are their own representatives
how does this work then?
Fuck that.
Direct democracy is nothing more than capitalism.
Then how?
Constitutional republic only.
In which there are no representatives.
what if those people take more power for themselves
the way you're describing it is very anarchic to say the least
so anarchy but its still called a government?
how does the government exercise power and through what?
We already have anarchy which is called government.
to me this sounds like dressing up anarchism and calling it something else
what?
same honestly
I'm freezing
Had a good shower tho
In a constitutional republic, a government is not even necessary.
They will be nothing more than a service extension of the people.
All to protect the people.
so they have power
🤔
but at the same time
