  • If I remember correct there is a [Edit] video recording from a [/Edit] Chaos communication Congress on the failure of democracies in which this is discussed. I'll see if I can dig it up. Might be in German though, but we'll see...

    [Edit] Yeah sorry it is in German https://media.ccc.de/v/37c3-12056-ist_die_demokratie_noch_zu_retten

    Selk, the presenter also has seemingly published mostly or exclusively in German, but I guess one can find similar researcher with publications in English.

    Edit3 there is a English translation audio track available

  • Post scriptum: This got way longer and way more opinionated than I intended. I still believe there is some fundamental argument in there, but it's not delivered rational. Sorry.

    Something I have repeatedly heard and read in criticism of modern democratic governments is that they don't actually do anything.

    The calculus of political compromise, the promise and ideal of stability, and over complex systems they over see make them fundamentally incapable of changing anything. The way democracies govern cannot adapt to outside change and will not deliver on inside demands. Change is opposed to how they calculate decision paths, how they understand incentive.

    They promise you that the continuation of injustice will guarantee price stability and then inflation happens. They ask you to cut back your carbon footprint and climate change escalates anyway. And when the fascists are appearing on the horizon they ask you to defend democracy, the system that fails you over and over again, by sacrificing your ideals, your needs, and in many cases your personal safety and security by opposing fascism.

    Democratic governments have proven that they cannot and will not protect you from economic hardship, war, climate catastrophe, wealth inequality, and your neighbor's tree standing to close to your fence.

    This is nothing that is necessary or inherent to democracies, it is how the internal way of thinking of democratic governments incentives their decision making.

    People want things to change. Past governments have shown that they won't deliver on that ever.

    And to make that clear I don't think minority rights are nothing, but they are for minorities. There is no fundamental change to the lives of the majority populous on the scale of same sex marriage.

    What they choose instead is burning books and people, because that is an expression of their internal suffering and pain, which they feel is ignored. They don't care that they might be next on the chop block, as long as they get to chop for a time.

    It's a nihilistic reaction to political frustration.
