While this is all true, it may not be easy to get liquid democracy enacted at any significant level. It disintermediates political representatives, for whom bundling means freedom to set policies in many areas.https://twitter.com/TusharJain_/status/998263482758959104 …

FYI: I came up with a hypothetical form of republic that renders redistribution structurally impossible by replacing elections with games. http://theanti-puritan.blogspot.com/2018/05/go-ocracy-alternative-republic.html …

That is hilarious. I like how you think, but I would not choose to join a society where I could be surrounded and captured by a legal system I didn't choose. Also, note that Seasteads make the game board topology dynamic, which expands your space of possible rules.

I'm glad you like it. Mainly it's a thought experiment to demonstrate that other games are possible besides election-based systems. Democratic republics can be thought of as Go-ocracies where every square is captured by a majority.

I like it as a thought experiment. And it shows how diverse a governance patchwork we could have if we didn't do this silly winner-take-all system.
