Nekename @nekename.bsky.social · 31/03/2025I think we ought to start taking popular sovereignty more seriously than our current discourse. What would we think of a king who appointed a corrupt minister against the laws of his own kingdom? Why should we think a democratic polity has any more authority to act against the law? 100
Nekename @nekename.bsky.social · 30/03/2025The idea is to give people options and see what they actually like. Housing prices in urban areas suggests pretty strongly that there are many more people who would prefer living on a transit line to having a big yard, but they don't have the choice 100
