WilliamLMiller7️⃣ Some believe modern governance suffers only from legal stagnation (Nomostasy). But we have also seen pure democracy in action—calm, orderly lynch mobs that enforced the will of the people, unchecked by law.
Old Fucking PunkAll these #UrbanLife people with their #BicycleLife posts can often make the idea of #PureDemocracy look bad.

Nemes ContentLike listen, I'm not saying have voters' input for every damn issue, but I think having referendums, initiatives, and citizens initiated recalls is better than hoping solely that politicians do what they were elected for.
For me, it's about accountability in the face of complacency.

Oh and maybe have some electoral reform so when you vote, your vote matters both in and outside your riding? thanks. #puredemocracy #ohio #election #participatorydemocracy #directdemocracy #ProportionalRepresentation #STV #MMP
My Reaction to the "Pure Democracy and Sexy Issues(tm) comment":
Having citizens participate in politics beyond merely voting for who represents them is good actually.
