    Democracy and the separation of power is such a structure that we already have. It works perfectly fine if “the group would team up” and vote people that try to assert dominance out.

    We’re just missing the “customs” that would make people do just that, and the question is how to establish this custom.

    It was already clear that we need customs that make people not give other people power, the question that I posed was how to start those customs you talk about.

      Yeah, I think the current consensus is dual power and wait until it’s either strong enough or the state is weak enough to revolt.
