This so called#Democracy that we live in isn't #Direct, #Participatory, #Deliberative, #Radical & #Revolutionary.
The #Democrats never talked about this when talking about #VotingRights, while they did that they let they're Ratchet Effects vote it down & didn't push back.
Democracy is inherently dynamic. Change for the worse generally occurs when we fail to make change for the better.
Neglect of structural reform does not lead to stability: it leads to stasis.
Thus democratic societies are now being out-competed by China & Russia.

Post-viral government:
Our mood has sobered since COVID. Decades-old narratives have collapsed. Our elites (left & right) are secretive, unaccountable. We want structural change.
Thanks to many, living & dead, the tools for populist governance exist.

This #VoteBlueToSaveDemocracy is hollow as we don't functionally have a #Democracy!
It ain't #Direct, #Participatory, #Deliberative, #Radical and #Revolutionary.
We have no Democracy, #voting is a scam with no Paper Ballot to have a recount and our voting systems are so hackable by 5th Grade levels of intelligence, we don't have real #Elections which no one talks about.
Look up Greg Palast as he said these issues before in the 2000's!
On deliberative democracy:
Miguel Egler - "Can We Talk It Out?"

Abstract: I argue that the most prominent epistemic defences of #deliberative #democracy fail. Relying on empirical findings on the workings of implicit bias, I show that they overstate the epistemic virtues of political deliberation. I also argue that findings in cognitive and social psychology can aid in the development of a new and improved generation of epistemic arguments for deliberative democracy.
Highly recommend this recording of today’s #NatCen & #KingsCollegeLondon seminar on making #deliberative #democracy part of everyone’s lives. To paraphrase @OliverEscobar
#Deliberation is a way of communicating as old as humanity, it’s not a #Eurocentric story
And Claudia Chwalisz from #DemocracyNext
Taking part in deliberative processes can have a transformative effect on people, it can ignite their sense of #agency
Tune in tomorrow lunchtime for the latest in this excellent seminar series on #DeliberativeResearch hosted by #NatCen and #KingsCollegeLondon
Guest speakers @OliverEscobar (University of Edinburgh) and Claudia Chwalisz from #DemocracyNext will be discussing
#Deliberation for all! The opportunities and risks of building #deliberative systems
See you there

Introduction:
Hi, I’m a political science postdoc researcher at the Computational Social Science Lab @Uni_Stuttgart
My roots are research on attitudes, #participation, and #voting behavior. My dissertation on participatory and #deliberative #democracy on local level brought me to python, webscraping and machine learning. #AI
I consider causal reasoning to be the most important part of statistical modeling. #DAG #DGP
