A periodic mass ritual legitimising the delegation of popular sovereignty to an empowered few, performed in the name of “democracy” but in reality employed often to consummate its usurpation.
Just as how most students only study for exams rather than for intellectual and spiritual enrichment, most politicians (in a “democracy”) only work for elections rather than serving and leading the people with compassion and vision.
