If you've ever observed the sea of grey hair in a community input meeting you'd know it is not a representative democracy. People across many cities have voted in favour of change to the status quo, only to be met with non-democratic resistance from back channels and other apparatuses established by incumbent homeowners who have infinite time and seemingly infinite resources to fight the will of the people to preserve their fiefdom.
