the exception to this is that a community will hold more influence over several communities a random distance anywhere above 2000 miles away than over communities in its immediate vicinity.
To me, that’s the bit that makes it a weird idea. Other than that, it seems like a relatively standard thought pattern (basically, competence tests for voting+ repetitive subdivision of society)
And the weird bit actually seems like a good hack to add on to a repetitive subdivision structure; provided that it’s a twinning thing, and not a one-way influence (one-way influence will produce resentment)
It is not, however, the weirdest thing on this discussion, let alone the weirdest idea possible.
Er, I have no comment on whether this is a good idea, but what makes it a weird idea?
