    truly democratic

    But is that really a good thing though? Considering most people are generally idiots and are easily brainwashed by social media.

    • I mean, alot would need to change. I don’t mean take today’s society and just plop them down on Mars. But also, truly democratic. But, look at where having people making the decisions for us had gotten us.

      I’m talking about a society where holding an office is a civic duty, not a job or a life time aspiration, but most matters of policy would be to a consensus, not the job of some career politician who’s more concerned with their career or wealth than what’s truly the best for everyone. And given this is a post scarcity society, there should be the same drive for wealth since that power dynamic shouldn’t exist anymore.
