> In sci-fi by Alistair Reynolds there is a certain faction called the Demarchists (or demarchy, but doesn't have the same connotation as the English word) - they all get a neural implant at birth that automatically polls them on every conceivable issue in their particular community, eventually it sort of faids to a low background noise in their head.... And they all vote, on everything. I think it would drive you fucking insane but its a type of (speculative) "direct democracy".
And the author presents it as good, bad, or he remains impartial to it?
Anyway, that sort of mechanism seems like a wet dream for people interested in turning (other) people into the most 'efficient' cogs for 'society'.
