map the 5 gateways allowing the few to control the many: primaries, money, incumbency, lobbying, and media, that let concentrated power persist inside a system designed to prevent it.
Let me know what you've learned about how house primaries can be used to absolute upset the establishment. Did you ever wonder why there is so much media encouragement to get out there and vote in November but almost nobody talks about the primaries? Did you ever wonder how the DSA got candidates elected?Without any money or establishment support? They used the very simple info in this post, ran humans against robots, and used the Dem party for ballot access. Now it's time for people to start planning for 2028.
One adjustment suggested Rxan. Yes to 2028 but 2026 is not yet in the bag and its The People (100%) who have the vote and not yet a single corp nor do those with money have more votes except through the various gerrymandering schemes by which with invisible cages and chains the few impose their aggressions on the many.
As able will say more, but for the most part your first part on the facts was super helpful in filling in a few blanks on the American system, which once you control for language differences, the election system between our two countries is nearly the same except for the presidential in that all of ours are SMP and most of yours too, but not all like the Pres and more than a handful using the ranked ballot or requiring run-offs.
The few actually were intended to lead the many. Look at any study of mammalian behavior. There is always an alpha. I hesitate to say it for fear of cancellation—male. Not always. Actually, there are certain societies that are matriarchies, but leadership is a very rare trait by definition, because if everybody had it, we would all kill each other.
Sorry, that's the talk of the elite and powerful who control the megaphones but single exceptions bread the rule.
Canada Geese tend to mate for life within an egalitarian family structure and when they fly in V formation whereby as a community they use less energy than otherwise and they keep changing who is in the lead as its the most costly to break the wind which true leadership is about, not universally the pecking order as you seem to suggest/dictate if able.
