Holocracy

A Holistic Democracy is governance for the 21st century. A system where decentralized, open source, trustless, people driven and people focused systems remove the need for fallible positions of power.
A Holocracy transcends but includes the best parts of Democracy, it simply eliminates the single points of failure and corruption.

A Holocracy is a system which allows all the assholes of the world to exist, it just doesn't give them any position of power.

A Holocracy is one naturally focused on balance and peace for all while being adaptive and responsive to the will of the people who choose to live within it.

That deliciously ironic moment when being a hipster becomes "too mainstream". In that instant each and every hipster will spontaneously combust as they have nothing left to live for.
