Electoral politics in a liberal democracy leads to fascism. A new order that enables more direct democracy is immediately necessary. #sortition #citizensassemblies #demarchy

I don’t disagree with you except for the definition of the term. If we limit our concept of democracy to “representative constitutional republic” we’re missing the rich, full meaning of the term. #citizensassemblies #sortition #demarchy

Sortition doesn’t ask of a citizen to pick oligarchs to lord over us. It asks of the citizen to work with other citizens on political problems for a time. There are no parties or pro politics in #sortition (aka #demarchy).

Why not Dem.archy?
or
Mono.cracy
Oligo.cracy
Demo.cracy

Are these words not describing various typologies of the same thing: power?

The U.S. (and democracy in general) needs to replace the “upper house” with a chamber of citizens selected at random, like a jury, selected to reflect the nation demographically, like a survey sample. Ultimately ditch the lower house as well. #sortition #demarchy

The UK is moving much more rapidly than the US toward instituting a House of Citizens to replace its elite chamber (House of Lords) as a check on the professional, empowered politicians in the lower house (of "Commons"). #Sortition #demarchy

The future is #sortion /
#demarchy, in which the people actually do all the political decision-making, resigning professional politicking and campaigning (i.e., money and the influence of money) to the dustbin of history. Google Terry Bouricius and Democracy Creative.

The U.S. needs to scrap a system that has clearly stopped working and devise one that will work for everyone. Take a year or two for everyone to contribute toward a solution. (The solution is #sortition aka #demarchy.)

Who cares? The fault lies not so much with the morons, but with the system that puts such morons in power: #elections.
#Democracy ≠ #elections;
DEMOCRACY = RANDOM SELECTION!

Exactly! Give me the almost invisible steady hand of a #demarchy.

Replace the Senate with a demographically representative citizens assembly, with members selected like jury members to serve limited terms. #sortition #demarchy

Personally I think we should scrap it and start all the way over with the premise being that the people should rule, and money and professional politicians should be banished from political power. #demarchy #sortition #citizensassemblies

In #TheRealityDysfunction it appears that the Edenists practice #demarchy as a form of government.

We need to stop talking about the US as a "democracy." It is an oligarchy, full stop. Or, if you like, oligarchy employing representational "democracy" as a cover. Once people figure that out, they'll realize voting for people to represent you is not democracy and needs to be scrapped. #demarchy
