Hahahahaha! I need to show that clip to my kids tonight... especially one of them...

Anyway, yeah I sympathize with your ponderings. I too have a problem with the way things are run. and What you said here:

Hence they can't be having equal votes because in the end one voice is not the same as another given context.

If you build spaceships you don't hire a flatearther to calculate trajectories. You could get them on the marketing squad though.

That is what I have said too but in a different way. My usual is "The problem with democracy is that you can gather a panel of 10 Doctors, Professors and Engineers to design and build anything but if I have 100 unqualified, ignorant people on my side then I will be the one who makes the decision of where all the money goes."

Thus we live in a time where the tail is shaking the dog while human society and advancement was developed the other way around. I do have suggestions for solutions but we would enough people to back it to make it work and we go right back to the qualified and well read vs the unread and ignorant again. Especially when their charlatan ring-leaders stand to lose their power.

Anyway... I came here to thank you for your tip you sent btw! Thank you!

and until by some miracle the world finds sanity and logic I guess the best move is mind your lane, kyk noord en fok voort. While obviously bitching because it is fun.

Amen!

I could theorize that a more practical form of governance would be a Technocracy, that gives votes vote weight based on their competence based on subject matter.

So a medical Doctor's vote weight is high when voting on matters of medicine, medium in terms of food distribution and low in regards to building a bridge... unless they are ALSO an competent engineer.

This would mean that scoring would need to be tracked through consistent effort and success ratio as well.

We would need some interesting technology to track this...

That's an interesting concept 🤔

But some doctors are total lunatics and don't know what's what...

And then less privileged folk who can't afford to become Dr's... well... same same.

The thing is... and here's the thing... you really have to have endlessly endless meetings between actual live humans for a proper democratic vote to be constructive and genuine.

With debate and questions and answers and scuffles and, and... it's a LOT of mission.

Admin everywhere.

Easy with smaller groups but tough with big ones.

Perhaps we should be reversing things again. Going more "tribal". Micro nations...

Tribal gatherings around fires. With a council. And marshmallows. And drumming please. 👍🏻

I think decentralization is a fucking fine start.

And I don't think it's the systems that are the problem. Still. We gotta level up. Or we will break any system we build.

Just our nature.

Or our forgotten nature. Because I think we're supposed to work together far better as a species...

Maybe we need to aim for radical personal individuation now. This kinda lives more the the whole concept of decentralization?

As in... a vote is pointless despite any education a person may have if they're afraid to actually use it authentically anyway?

Also. Fuck politics. Again. I'm sure we can all just treat everybody the way we'd like to be treated? That's not complicated at all.

It might not seem complicated but in a general point of view, humans as a species does not have any unified goals.

Thus corruption, murder and theft.

If we had common goals and worked towards them our resources would be used less wastefully.

But as it stands there are Billions who live their life to perform meaningless functions so they can replicate children that would then continue to perform meaningless tasks without any real progress.

Hell yeah.

Sign me up. If we have same goals. :)

It's far more fun navigating this whole life thing with kindred spirits 👍🏻
