Capilliary democracy,
or whatever it’s called that Deng Xioaping has introduced.
I’m talking about layered elections + civic exams.
Liberal democracy has campaign fraud in it practically by design,
thus the will of the people becomes the will of the oligarchs right after every election,
and not even the will of domestic oligarchs for most countries.
Marx’ idea of democracy hardly got off the ground.
Lenin’s idea of democracy had the unintended consequence of turning the General Secretary of the communist party as its most powerful position soon after he died.
