Without getting too into this, my opinion is that humans work as one giant organism, we all depend on each other on a daily basis. So therefore i believe a democracy is the only way to go. the sad thing is though, people dont realize how much say we actually have living in a democracy. such a small fraction actually participate in voting in most countries, if more people got involved with government affairs, i think the world would be a 'slightly' better place.

edit; also i believe technocracy has its advantages too, i havent read much about it but i think there should definitely be more scientists involved with the government.

actually most people don't even understand politics and things they are voting for. If they actually took the time to get educated on things then yes it could get better, but most people know barely anything and would end up hurting everything.

yeah thats what i mean by getting more involved, if the average person just took a small amount of time out of their lives once a week and actually took notice to national/international government affairs, a lot of opinions would change, based around more critical thinking. but weve grown to become such lazy people, most people have the mindset of, 'if it doesnt effect me, it doesnt matter'

Greeks, who popularized democracy, had a cycle of systems:

democracy > anarchy > dictatorship > democracy > anarchy > dictatorship, etc.

Eventually, democracy would be pushed too far into anarchy; then people who hate anarchy and bow to a dictatorship; then people who hate the dictator and demand democracy, and back to the cycle. So, basically, all this to say no matter which one you choose history tells us that it will switch to another soon enough.

yeah atm seeing all europe voting right wing it will soon, maybe very short-term be Anarchy ruling and then for some decades dictatorship eventually. After people will hate that, the wars will cause to happen Democracy. The same happened with Germany after WW1 and WW2.

technocracy all the way

in time....

It could be possible, the modern era is focused on technology anyways. It makes sense that the people that should be running it are engineers, scientists, and what have you.
