Feels to me like every system of government (or there lack of) relies on people behaving "correctly", and most charges of utopianism are pure projection.
"you assume people will just behave themselves without consequences, they need leaders to hold them accountable"
Yeah
But
Aren't you assuming the leaders will just behave themselves without consequences?
Yeah
But
Aren't you assuming the leaders will just behave themselves without consequences?
And if the people can create consequences for their leaders, aren't you assuming they won't use that power to do whatever they wanted to do without the leaders anyway?
All things being equal, I'd prefer some anti social jerk behaving contrary to the interest of the greater group to have less power, not more
