Voting is a Horrible Way to Solve Problems in Large Groups
Voting isn't a right. It is a proven failure of group dynamics. We can do much better...It is testable.
Voting is a horrible (and easy to corrupt) way to solve group problems, yet we keep using it as if it was good.
It isn't, and it is testable.
There are MUCH better systems we should be exploring called collective "swarm" intelligence systems where thousands or even millions of people can solve groups as one cohesive unit. Such as HERE. These systems considerably outperform voting methods by a wide margin when it comes to both results and confidence scores.
Humanity’s biggest problem is that we no longer have anywhere to go to make real change.
Many of the traditional places where the public once had a voice - Congress, academia, media, and government - have become infected, captured, or corrupted. They no longer function as responsive mechanisms for meaningful change. The people used to have influence within these systems. That influence is mostly gone now.
The solution is obvious: we must build a new place. A place we trust. A place we can build trust and teams with each other. A place we can pool resources and purpose. A place, for example, like THIS.

Humans solve problems better in high-trust groups, and solving problems is happiness!

For over 3 billion years on this planet there were only single-celled organisms. Then one day they somehow learned to work together and make complex multi-celled creatures . Right now we are like those single-celled organisms. Our next evolution is finding how to work together, better… (like we wrote about here).

This is how we change the world. We build genies - systems of people like this:
Positions that are currently elected should instead be filled the way we do jury duty. It’s clean. It’s simple. Everybody already understands how it works.
I do also agree that it’s a big pill to get people to swallow in a climate of society having believed for centuries upon centuries that decision-making is a skill that only true authority figures possess. So how do you combat that?
Yeah. I don't partake in that scheme anymore
