> Why do I have to do theirs too?
If you want democracy, you have to participate. Otherwise you're relying on benevolent dictatorship as a substitute. The failure modes of that form of governance are pretty obvious, and have been playing out in anglophone countries since the neoliberal coups of the 1980s. Key, Ardern, Hipkins and Luxon are all products of this rot.
