I used the phrase, "Social Consensus" to distinguish from "Workgroup Task Consensus." This is not a phrase you used.

By "small group of people" are you referring to an elite group, a "global cabal" directing the affairs of humanity? "Agency for people in general" to set policy? You mean voting and other civic involvement? If this is to what you refer, then you are in the realm of Chomsky's "Manufacturing Consent." If not, then I am unclear what you mean by "rational way to determine what society should look like" or what "utopic ideals" would have to do with wondering if this "needs to be in everything, no matter how small?"

@Romaq Is this meant as a reply to somebody specific?

I'm going between using the qoto.org website and the app on my phone in responding to the thread, and I note the thread is getting mangled from this. I'm not clear how to correct the app. I think it's the app. I should likely just use the web page on my cell.
