MODERATORS
The community itself would make those decisions in a way that works for them. Us telling them in the future now from the past how to live their lives is tyrannical
Does the majority need to agree with the decisions? Or could the majority appoint people to make the decisions? Or could one person simply take charge and unilaterally make decisions as a dictator? Would any of those be acceptable?
See my comment above for answers to these questions
You do this already. If you are part of a church or friend group or organisation or whatever, you usually sort out issues when they come up by talking to one another. Saying people are going to vote is a weird framing of normal collaboration, because most of the time we agree on decisions by talking and compromising
See my comment above
I mean I should be able to name as many as anybody on the planet, including you. My point is that I am not going to say "well they might do X" because then from now on "X" becomes the focal point of the possibilities. I am not even going to hold my future self hostage to what present me suggests
Not at all. It's "I am not going to tell others how to make decisions for their communities." It really isn't that difficult to use one's imagination to come up with possibilities. You are a human being with a brain. You don't need a Moses like me to lead you to the possibilities. You can do so yourself. This is the issue with global society now, we only do what others tell us is possible, we are terrified of imagining ourselves what can be possible. Think freely comrade, don't let others dictate your future to you
They would probably vote. How they'd vote idk, that's not for me to decide.
