    Direct democracy would be less hierarchical than what we have currently, but it’s still a hierarchy of the majority over the minority. So long as government exists, the decisions of the majority will be violently enforced upon the minority.

    Unless of course you’re referring to direct democracy without law enforcement, but I wouldn’t exactly call that a government.
