  This is why electoralism was, is, and always will be a failure. True global fixes will always require unpopular and unpleasant decisions like this.

    Ok...fun to see how the "common good" types often blatantly argue/devolve into authoritarianism...

    What system do you propose that will implement wise unpopular and unpleasant decisions and not foolish ones ... at least more than electoral systems do?
    • wow_yes 6y ago
      Dictatorship of the proletariat, of course. You see left wing ideas rising in the discourse, media, and world - the fire burns within, Capitalism will fall soon

        If a dictatorship of the proletariat has no electoral systems, then the proletariat aren't actually consulted, and it's just a dictatorship.
