People are fed up with 'our democracy' and are done with 'healing the world'.

All eyes are on you. What system do you propose?

Republic of Dithmarschen
'The Peasants' Republic of Dithmarschen was a de facto Peasants' Republic in the northern German region of Schleswig-Holstein. It was formally part of the Prince-Archbishopric of Bremen, although the Prince-Bishopric never actually controlled the territory.

The Peasants' Republic is still active as a district (German: Kreis) in the modern-day federal state of Schleswig-Holstein under the name Dithmarschen.

Politics​

Dithmarschen was a de facto Peasants' Republic under Oligarchical rule.
The old "Kirchspiele" (Church districts) in Dithmarschen. (Today's borders and coastline in black)

Subdivisions​

Dithmarschen was subdivided into multiple Kirchenspiele which can be translated as Church districts. Kirchenspiele are comparable to modern-day municipalities.

Achtundvierziger​

The Achtundvierziger (Litteraly translates to Forty-eighth) was the governmental organ of Dithmarschen, which was established on the 13. February 1447. It existed to unite the individual subdivisions, so as to not have them being largely independent, like before.

It was first established to just act as a court but it slowly transformed into being the governing body of the Peasants' Republic.

It worked under a oligarchical system, in which, 48 lifetime judges would be appointed by the individual subdivisions.'

Social darwinism.
I want to challenge this notion of social darwinism. The idea that any system can turn of evolution is ludicrous. The only think any system does is changing the evolutionary pressure and therefore they are all a form of social darwinism. The term does describe a bias more than anything real. Please share your thoughts.

    Me and wifey was deciding on our next vacation, so I hung up a map on the wall, and give her a dart and said, wherever you hit, we will go. She threw the dart and it missed the map completely and fell into a trash can below on floor. So I said "ok Florida it is."
