Nevertheless, the voters made their choice and actively voted for these representatives.
If everyone is so outraged and there's so many TikTok users, they can rally and vote out the people who voted for this.
I for one support this ban fwiw. You'll find out a lot of people do too. So in this instance and quite a few others, my representative has voted in my favor.
Voting between 1 of 2 respectives every few years to represent all issues doesnt seem to represent how citizens feel about individual issues.
What would your system be?
Democratic

That’s not how voting works in practice. The people I vote for do not match my views on every single topic. Just enough (weighted) that they are the better choice.
It is possible that every single candidate on the ballot is in agreement on a topic that every single non-candidate voter has the opposite view on. That doesn’t mean nobody gets elected.
