    They can be educated about what decisions each party made, is making and is promising to make.

    Then based upon that, weigh the pros and cons, and pick whatever they want to live with.

    There are 2 terminal problems with that:

    • You cant actually live how you want to in most cases because there are other people that should vote in their own favor.
    • Nobody has time and willpower after a stressfull work day to indulge into politics, because it is not apart of our culture these days, to fully care about that which controls our lives: politics, politicians and mafia.

    I have a solution to this, but you probably dont want to hear it.

        Right.

        Clans.

        Imagine countries, but youre free to move to whichever clan you wanna live with, because every clan has their own rules.

        These days every country has more-less the same laws so there is no choice of life, really.

        And the choice should be close to you, so its feasable so you can actually move there.

        This can only be achieved if the clans are smaller and bigger in numbers aka more often and not too far from every person, ideally.

          So a world where, lets say, anarchist, liberal and fascist “clans” coexist peacefully, freedom of movement is guaranteed and supported by all those clans and information regarding all existing clans are available freely so people can make informed decisions?

          • While not quite exactly, the situation you’re describing isn’t too far off from some of the ways people have lived historically. I 10/10 recommend reading The Dawn of Everything if you’re interested. Some of that research really changed my thoughts about what is possible.

                    If we could come up with an agreement of like maximum land size per person and minimum distance between the next such clan, maybe it could function?

                    But then again nobody would be in the fashist clan, and they would not like this idea haha

                    What else do you propose?

              That was not my intention, instead I tried to repeat your idea in my own words to make sure I actually understand. Also I intentionally added kinda opposing factions and the concept “freedom of movement” to my question to make the idea more clear to me and others.

              Also your idea reminds a little of the “World where many worlds fit” idea that comes from (or I have first learned of when reading) zapatista texts.

                Wow

                I read that page, and it sounds promising, but im not sure how much exactly it is how I wanna live, yet.
