TLDR: democracy is rule by the people, unless the people choose poorly or refuse to accept what is Obviously Good and Right.
Your ideas are bad and naive, and because you seem to be disavowing my natural right to refuse to participate in this poorly thought out ideological regime which you would have rule the world, you are also proposing tyranny.
I don't accept that your idea of what "bad" is, is anything other than "stuff I personally don't like," only you have not examined your beliefs enough to realize that. In my view, you are unreasonably optimistic about the prospects for success for any of what you described, and I assume it's because you are unaware of, or view unrealistically, the history of these and related ideas.
- henearkr 4y agoIf you don't like democracy, why would you get upset that the government of a country/region is not listening to your opinion? By dichotomy: - either the government listens to your preferences, so it is not a tyranny, but as you are not alone to be listened to, a democratic system becomes required (unless you want to be the dictator?) - either your preference is to not live in a democracy, and in this case the gvt does not listen to you, because you have no such right . By the way, do you live currently in a democracy?
