In his opinion.
We do not expect debaters to be necessarily a good judge of their own debate skill. Debate is a communication art, and it is judged by its effect on an audience. Shall we vote?

I vote that ALL your points about lemminghood are untrue.
You are mixing the well know flaws of RD with your own ideas of DD,
giving nonsence.
So there, you are uncorrect.
But as Lomax points out, debating is not about beeing correct, it’s
about convincing people.
And you seldom convince, Mark.
You have to improve on your debating skills if you want better results
in your selling of SD2.
One way is to stop being uncorrect, another is to listen to others
arguments and accept them instead of stating them to be “lemmings
words”.

-M: As I said, the problem with L-RD is that it is Lemming-RD and not

DD uses the same algorithm as L-RD.

OK, mostly true. Lets tighten it up a bit: Most problems I can think of are because of lemminghood and corruption.
Looks good to me. Where has this been challenged?
You seem to be of the opinion that people will make the correct
decisions when presented with information. The problem is this is just
information,
and it largely is unprocessed into meaning for the non-specialist.
So then WHO are the trustworthy specialists?
Without an anti-corruption mechanism,
the lemmings can be duped into selecting a fuck-head. :-(
This is why SD2-S selects people hierarchicly based on their
trustworthiness.
This deselects the dupes and fuck-heads.
Gotta better idea?

L-RD might have the same principle, 50% +1, as AD.
But the algo is excerised by a better hardware, with less arbitar
influence.
And as far as I understand your enlightened peers will also use the
same c-algo, 50% +1 once they have to decide something wich is their

So why is SD2 better than AD when it comes to algos?

This is unfair and BS.

You seem to be of the opinion that people will make the correct
decisions when presented with information. The problem is this is just
information,
and it largely is unprocessed into meaning for the non-specialist.
-You want citizens to choose reps without knowing the facts inside all
known information for the issues?
And you don’t call that Lemminghood?
Where is the logic?

This is why SD2-S selects people hierarchicly based on their
trustworthiness.
This deselects the dupes and fuck-heads.
Gotta better idea?
-Yes I have, you are stealing my argument: Selecting the wrong guy due
to lemminghood is a larger problem than selecting the wrong alternative
in a specific issue. Read Socrates.
And even if SD2 helps to sort out the worst fuck-heads, the risk is
still there because no single person is perfect to use for all
decicions.
Some are made best by your own which you have not challenged.
And if this is the case, you have no proof of that reps will ever do
the best job, once all info is on the table in a specific issue.

-M: Yes, selected peers would probably use 50%+1 among themselves with
SD2.
This is better than the above because they are selected peers.
SD2-S uses a decision threshold of specialists – default 60%.
>mG: So why is SD2 better than AD when it comes to algos?
-M: Because the augmented democratic process of PageRank/SD2/SD2-S
filters away the lemmings.
This is based on the idea that people generally select those that are
more qualified than themselves. So extend this principle as deep as
possible into a trust network to find the convergence of qualification.

This is all that is needed for augmented democracy to snowball

This is based on the idea that people generally select those that are
more qualified than themselves. So extend this principle as deep as
possible into a trust network to find the convergence of qualification.
-And it it here you don’t have any proof of superiority over letting
the people decide for themselves.
The idea of need for filtering away the Lemmings from the process are
still challenged as BS by me and others util you have bette evidence.
In AD they (if any existent) are in the process, but only the acts
taken by lemmings will be filterd away by the sorting on accumulated
support, making the decision making progressive only where adeqaute
arguments and debate is made.
With SD2 this is not guaranteed since the enlightened peers can do
things non-TOP away from the eyes for the people.
You say that such leaders will loose rank, but this is not guaranteed
if there is group thinking, which is much likely, just as today.
>>> >>mG: Let’s leave that to others,…

And I do want them to be informed so as to know who and what to select.

How will the average citizen be able to judge when, if big daddy tends
to control and steer everything, just as today?
TOP applicated to SD2 would help, but you have failed to proof if
enough or not.

-I’m not because, even if there are several lower decisionmakers, they

This is why your keep your own key to your appartment and car etc. Your
bank accounts, mail etc is (hopefully) controlled by you and no big
daddy.

-And again you avoid to answer the key issue, SD2 will also lead as
much as possible into decions by big daddy, since big daddy will sit in
the top. SD2 have mechanism to deliberate you say, but the key problem
is that it is up to bigdaddy to decide (together with his group
thinkers).
Definately nothing new here, I agree.

This is people deciding for themselves.
DD already selects others too, but arbitrarily limits this process to

By contrast, PageRank/SD2/SD2-S selects people by an unlimited process.

DD already selects others too, but arbitrarily limits this process to

By contrast, PageRank/SD2/SD2-S selects people by an unlimited process.

-Fine, I know that your standpoint is this arbitrar. The lack of logic is obvious to all.
>> With SD2 this is not guaranteed since the enlightened peers can do > things non-TOP away from the eyes for the people.
>-M: This may be useful for national security. I like TOP, but some administration should be secret.
-Just minimum. All heads of defence, police etc has to be elected with
immediate recall.
And their inscructions have to be open and democratically decided upon.
When it comes to foreign politics, open diplomacy should be the rule,
so no need for secrecy there.
>>mG: -What if your conclusions is wrong? And people just dont bother anymore > to tell you that?

>-M: Big Daddy would have more control over an AD system than a TOP-SD2-S because the lemmings in the AD system would be more dupable and influential.
-Why?
>-M: Even with AD, there is still the media manipulating the minds of
the masses.
With SD2-S, the peer structure would counter faulty popular opinion.
-What is faulty opinion?? I dont see the difference except that with
SD2, people and lobbyists would concentrate to try to convince big
daddy about things instead of building opinion among neighbours and the
rest of the population, gving an open debate.
A system error frankly, to via reps when the people should rule. Which
is leading to corruption already today.
>>mG: -Yes I am! Because AD minimizes the risk whereas SD2 amplifies it.
>-M: No – AD is more dangerous because the leaders can be selected by popularity, instead of by statecraft expertese.
-This is not the issue here. I have said many times that I’m not against the selection of reps (if needed) by the SD2 algo. You are trying to win with open doors and hide the fact that SD2 as only system, actually amplifies todays problems compared to AD.
>-M: Lower decisionmaking is an administrative nessescity. I don’t know what you have in mind here.
-Just as todays politicians, you are mixing administration tasks with
decicion making tasks.
On lower levels, there should and can be only administration,
controlled by decisions made by higher levels, in AD case, the people.
In SD2 case, statecraft expertise, ready to be corrupted.
>> >-M: SD2-S is about choosing the best people for the job. > Nothing new here. >mG: -And again you avoid to answer the key issue, SD2 will also lead as > much as possible into decions by big daddy, since big daddy will sit in > the top.
-M: Big Daddy always sits at the top, even in DD systems. Again, no comparison.
-Is he? Where in the AD system? And how can an SD2 big daddy be comparable?
>>mG: SD2 have mechanism to deliberate you say, but the key problem > is that it is up to bigdaddy to decide (together with his group > thinkers).
>-M: DD has group thinkers and Big Daddy too. Again, no comparison.
-No…dont try give me yor headakes. A groupthinking group in AD will
be ignored since the rest of society will go around it or a corrupt big
daddy.
In SD2 there is no clear way of cleaning out group thinkers if they all
cooperate in the top just switching top ranks with each other.
Which is abig risk that you have not adressed fully.
So I make a very important comparison.
