How do you use Sybil attack for a system where the initial creator signs the initial voters, and then they collectively sign elections and acceptance of new members and all such stuff?

Doesn't seem to be a problem for a system with authorized voters.

Flood them with AI-generated applicants.

So why would they accept said AI-generated applicants?

If we are making a global system, then confirmation using some nation's ID can be done, with removing fakes found out later. Like with IRL nation states. Or "bring a friend and be responsible if they are a fake". Or both at the same time.

Would every participant get to see my government-issued ID?

One can elect a small group which will and will sign its connection to something intermediate. Then only they will.

How do we know if they're doing a good job without being able to review their work?
