Arguably, it's better to elect flawed but representative people. How else are people to learn?
- GeneralMayhem 10y agoPeople will refuse to learn either way. Better to have someone intelligent at the top protecting them from their own ignorance, short-sightedness, and pettiness than to continue to inflict those traits on everyone by having representatives be glorified remote-control pens.
- manicdee 10y agoLearn what? That the slip from representative democracy to genocide-crazy fascism is one election cycle?
- candiodari 10y agoCould you explain how leaving the EU is genocidal and/or fascist ? How it is going to change the government in the UK ?
- andrewflnr 10y agoI'm guessing that was a reference to the US election.
- mcguire 10y agoOr possibly the end of the Weimar Republic.
- vixen99 10y agoDoes representative democracy equate with EU lawmaking whereby it is the unelected commission that have the sole right to propose legislation'? Yes, that is actually the case, believe it or not.
