I'm done with democracy and propose a new form of government:

Once a month, there's a giant parade and everyone who has an idea gets to put together their own float/performance; best entries get governmental positions based on ranking. Anytime there's a disagreement, each team will debate by presenting their argument while completing challenges from '90s-'00s Nickelodeon game show challenges; chatGPT will rate which argument is the most cohesive and assign percentages and then the time differences will be added to each team to determine final scores.

Finally, if anyone is caught cheating or trying to create fascism, their entire parade team gets eaten alive by all of the other parade teams. Only people willing to eat others alive or get eaten alive are allowed to be politicians.

It used to be that every group in New New York wanted their own parade. Why, when I was a boy, we had a parade every day. Those were dark times.

Only people willing to eat others alive or get eaten alive are allowed to be politicians.

Wait, is that 'or' or 'and' get eaten alive? Like, what if I'm willing to be eaten alive, but I want my other teammates to do all the people-eating for me?

How dare you correct my wrong words! I'll see you on the Steps of Knowledge, punk!

Would I be allowed in the parade if I wasn’t a politician?

If so, then I agree with your idea.

Every third Friday is the citizens' parade followed by naked mole rat races Sunday
