but why force diversity thats just stupid

diversitiy is actual cancer in a political sense

imagine having a country for people thinking like this (germans in germany) and a country for people thinking like that (turks in turkey)

isnt that so much better?

there would be a much larger happier majority

Democracy as it currently is (Representative Democracy), can't work indeed, but Direct Democracy (and preferably with a few alterations) can work, and it can work very well, actually. I've had countless debates with anti-democratic people, and it's actually true what you say - claiming that democracy appeals to individualism is a standard argument against Democracy; but I just surprise these people when I prove them wrong.

In order for one to claim that Democracy appeals to Individualism, one must think that the definition of Democracy is the one that you posted: "The idea is about your views being represented, and your views having an influence on the economy/country." And yet again, that's simply not the definition of Democracy. Democracy promises that the will of the majority becomes reality. Not that the individual's views have an influence on the country's politics. That simply can't work. The idea of democracy is the __collective__ effort of all the majority to agree on, say, a law that needs to be passed. Therefore, collectivism, not only between the people who make up the majority, but between all the voters of the country, is required for Democracy to work properly.

We need direct democracy

Is the US in a way, a direct democracy?

Not at all. It's a Representative Democracy - a "democracy" in which people vote for their rulers.

In Direct Democracy the rulers are the people.

Ah :)

:>

@Ater Votum Could you justify direct democracy?

Also, you do realize that democracy is incompatible with Christianity as it allows for bums and immoral people to allow and advocate morality. Which is particularly forbidden thru out the bible

@Sentient23 it makes the decisions that will satisfy the most people

So what?

thats all the justification you need

Why should the will of the most people be satisfied

This entails relatviism

I hope you realize that right

Which is incompatible with Christianity

well if most peoples wills are satisfied then society works better

if people are happier and so on

the thing is by human nature you arent completely selfish

for example my teacher said what if the majority doesnt want special driveways for wheelchair people to get up stairs of public places

but its obvious an average human wouldnt want a wheelchair person to suffer

except if you somehow tell him wheelchair people are lesser than normal people

but a neutral person wouldnt think this

on the other hand people dont want for example mosques to be built in europe because they make themselves feel uncomfortable and make islam have a foothold in Europe.

and so they have the right to make this decision on a moral basis because building those mosques actually hurts the majority thats why they want to get rid of them

luckily an average human is actually smart enough to make rational decisions

an iq of 100 is pretty okay for that the thing is they need to be educated right as well

I never said im selfish dude

I never implied that selfishness was the drive between my morality

I asked why should satisfaction of the people be the drive here?

And why are you avoiding answering my concern about Christianity?

Are you a christian still or have you become an atheist?

i guess the reason people like psychopaths and such are allowed to vote is probably just practicality i mean it would probably be better to take away the right to vote of people with certain antisocial brain specialities.

well i said that society works better if more people are satisfied

Works better in what sense?

its obvious theres more happiness all around and more productiveness
