Hello Ximboland
Founder and President of Ximboland
With regards to my earlier post about the failure of democracy to take a hold in Ximboland.
By now I expected that we would have been the first website ever to have developed a healthy and open democracy. I had hoped we would have developed into the worlds first and best online democratic nation by now.
By that I mean that I had expected every election and state minister election to be hotly but fairly contested by now. I expected a vibrant, exciting and lively democracy. I had expected that political groups or parties would have developed along the left-right axis with off site websites and groups forming. I had expected by now that elections would be hotly debated and eagerly anticipated by all.
However this has not happened and that is disappointing.
I have listened to you and tried to understand why it is that despite us having open and free elections - and despite us rewarding the Prime Bimbo in various ways including financial - democracy still has not taken root in Ximboand.
I have asked myself various questions :
is it because our Ximbos/users are not 'politically minded' or intelligent enough to appreciate the nuances of community politics?
Is it because the Prime Ximbo is not paid enough?
Is it because Ximbos don't like democracy and prefer to simply live under dictatorship ?
Is it because democracy doesnt just grow on trees and actually needs to be encouraged or grown or watered like a plant or tree. And therefore I have not encouraged and cultivated democracy enough ?
Is it because democracy is boring?
Let me answer these 1 by 1 -
is it because the users are not 'politically minded' enough to appreciate the nuances of community politics?
I dont believe this to be the case overall - politics or the word 'politico' means 'life'. We are all interested in our own lives and our own communities.
And whilst there are probably some people whom don't care I do believe that a lot of people reading this really do care about ximboland and about their community and therefore by extension - politics.
Is it because the Prime Ximbo is not paid enough?
I dont believe this to be the case either. Were they offered more say $2500 or $25 000 would that really change the situation ? I dont believe it would.
Besides what does that say about our leaders if they are only interested in money? It says they dont really love our community or representing our Ximbo people. It means they are shallow and vacuous.
Anyone whom claims its because of money is already the wrong type of selfish and shallow Ximbo citizen and they should be called out for it. If you really loved your community you would not be money orientated.
Is it because Ximbos don't like democracy and prefer to simply live under dictatorship ?
Hmmmm. No I think deep down there is an appetite here amongst you for an open, healthy and transparent democracy.
Is it because democracy doesnt just grow on trees and actually needs to be encouraged or grown and watered like a plant/tree. And therefore I have not encouraged and cultivated democracy enough ?
Perhaps this is true and I need to take action. More below.
Is it because democracy is boring?
Again i dont think this is the case - I genuinely feel our community is intelligent enough to appreciate democracy and what we/I am trying to achieve here.
Is it because we are not a 'real' country and therefore its not a 'real' democratic nation?
There is some truth in this perhaps but may I remind everyone that despite our flaws we are still a 'democracy'. We are now a 15 year old democracy. Who has been here 15 years? me.
We are older than some 'real countries' such as South Sudan. We vote for our leader. We should be more proud of being the worlds only online democratic nation as far as I am aware. So we should not be ashamed and hold back. We should embrace it and help make it successful. Community governance is hard to achieve but if everyone gets stuck in in good faith then we can achieve it.
So what can i/we do to encourage the fostering of democracy?
Firstly I am going to intervene to stop the situation where we have unopposed elections ie only 1 single current Prime ximbo standing.
The reality is that if there is only 1 single Prime Ximbo on the ballot paper then that is a failure of our democracy overall. Its a failure of the current Prime Ximbo to foster an open and democratic environment where healthy debate and opposition is cherished. It is their responsibility to encourage and promote democracy. So if no one stands against them then it is partly their failure. It is also a failure of you as an individual Ximbo. What are you doing for your community? Why arent you standing when your ximbo nation needs you? Do you give anything back to your community?
If no one stands against the incumbent prime ximbo then I will automatically be installed as Prime Ximbo for 1 term.
So I will be president and Prime ximbo for 1 term and until there are at least 2 proper healthy candidates vying for power.
Secondly I am going to foster a more left-right political axis in Ximboland by installing myself as Prime Ximbo every 3rd term until such a time when democracy is thriving.
My politics are as follows - I will be encouraging and protecting the freedom of speech in Ximboland by scrapping all 'hate- crime' laws. Threats of violence or threats to hurt others are unacceptable but hurty words are not. The time when I most enjoy Xomboland is the time when we have the fewest restrictions and laws around speech. In simple terms I am from the Elon Musk school of freedom of speech and I fear that Ximboland has been governed largely by the Mark Zuckerburg school of censorship of late. To its detriment.
I am towards the right on the left-right political axis.
I am looking for some fashion police whom align with my political views so if you cherish freedom of speech and think Ximboland has become too 'woke' then please contact me and I look forward to working with you. After some time when our democracy is more established I will refrain from inserting myself into power every 3rd term.
Thirdly we are going to introduce news feeds so that we can follow the Ximbos we like of a similar political persuasion.
Finally we are going to allow Ximbos to create images and posts that only their followers can see and that they can charge to be seen thus we will monetise creators in the same way twitter has.
Hopefully the above changes will help further democracy and further our great Ximbo nation
