It's been democratically instituted many times. And every time America marches in and "liberates" them.
It's difficult to provide good examples when they're all actively destroyed.
Democracy is mathematically impossible
Ah yes my favorite authoritative source on the mathematics of democracy: a YouTube video.
Fuck off
Veritasium is legit, they cite their sources and explain concepts exceptionally well.
However, I don't think the conclusion of the video is "Democracy is mathematically impossible", but rather "perfect representation in a democracy" is mathematically impossible (but can still be much much better than FPTP).
The video basically goes through all the top voting systems and explains their pros and cons and the history of the mathematicians who invented the systems.
It's not even that. The more accurate title would be "Ranked voting types cannot mathematically meet all of the requirements of democracy this one guy made"
The whole video I wanted to yell out "so switch to approval voting".
