Entirely open (at best) question, which no smug hacker news commenter is going to answer. What does one do?

(My current longshot hope? Digital democracy, on the backs of open source production economies running on the latest AI for highly-accessible/affordable data processing / labor. If we just start making online group decisions and scale it up, that's a power bloc that can run its own parties and strongarm existing gov processes - assuming the network even wants to interact with them... )

Politics is the set of activities associated with making decisions in groups, or other forms of power relations among individuals.

Throwing technology at these human affairs isn’t an answer.

Not the sole answer but it does enable different ideas that weren't possible at scale without technology.

Something like liquid democracy.

It also gives a fresh space to develop democratic systems that aren't dominated by previous parties to the extent that there is barely a functioning democracy.

I agree with many that the most effective method will be some combination of empowering communities and destruction of property.

Way too much focus on the HOW and not the WHAT
