Hey, so I’ve created a community to discuss and talk about sortition, a type of governance where leaders and officials are chosen at random. This was practiced by ancient Athens, and is considered to be much better at representation than normal democracy.

    I think the Absolute State of the GOP disproves this. They have their own agendas and are some of the stupidest people alive, because they have cultivated a voter base that will never be satisfied with anyone who isn’t at least as illiterate, racist, anti-intellectual, and deluded as they are. Conservative Evangelicalism is a Problem.
