[Ag Meinungsfindungstool] Keine Zeit für "Henris mud games for kids"

["Schallehn AT t-online.de" <Schallehn AT t-online.de>]

Liebe Leute,

lasst euch doch bitte nicht noch mehr Zeit stehlen!

 

Dass von Henri nichts außer mud zu erwarten ist, hat er selber deutlich genug gesagt.

 

Gruß!

Hi Henri,

 

you said that democracy was a "civilized form of war". What you mean is your "democratic market mechanism", right? But I believe that democracy is more than just about negotiation or balancing of particular interests. That's a part of it. But there's more.

 

How do these interests emerge? In a democracy, they should not simply represent egoistic interests. Instead, people are willing to find a "win-win-solution". It's not about negotiating a price of a car, it's about following one's common values, weighing consequences and finding creative solutions. That's a big challenge. If most people should be able to understand that and help, there has to be a structure supporting them. Not by negotiation but by deliberation.

 

Are we just trying to solve this problem of current democracy by negotiation? No, we are deliberating...

 

Greetings,

Paul

Hi Thomas.
Thanx for feeding the Troll.
But its not my fault you cannot find democracy. I told you its nonsense to go for opinion or discussion systems before you got the decision making right. That is the lower API layer, which works with opinions already given. And for decision systems you can drop everything, which works with proposals. I then guess your long list of tools goes down to zero.

You have to understand first, what you can already observe in the political arena. Why do representative structures build up? Take a pen and paper draw some smilies and get an idea how structures of dominance build up. Democracy is not a consensual system. It is a civilized form of war. But besides being stable because of that fundation, it is economically optimal. Democracy is not only given naturally. It is free and great ans superb.

Take two of your smilies and draw a circle around them. This first group can dominate all others. No proposals needed!! But a program on which one of the group acts as a politician and the other as a voter. That is all you need to know to understand democracy. Groups can cooperate with a coalition program. There is consensus within groups and competition between them.

Just drop what you did. And spent some time to get familiar with democracy. It is so very easy.

Henri

Hi Henry,

you think that we're doing mud games ? Well, that is the point that we
have already crossed. We had more than one year of talk. Everyone was
thinking that the others are just doing 'mud games for kids'. Well,
the way we took was to say : "Okay, let's make reality decide what the
best grass root democracy tool is for the users !"
That's why we have started to build a common platform for all discussion
tools.

Now you have two choices left :
Either you can waste your time by throwing mud at us for going this way
or you can participate and try to make your idea compatible to create
competition between your tool and ours.


Greetz,
DerThomas
