This idea was originally meant for my educational online store, Level 3, Topics Government & Politics.
A story in which there’s this huge family that always votes for the same thing.
Their “political party” just keeps growing and growing, until they’re the biggest and stay the biggest forever, and people are starting to wonder “how?”
So they investigate and discover that, long ago, someone started this “conspiracy”. They have a strict rule that everyone in the family must vote for that party, and that they can’t say anything about all of this to outsiders.
This is regulated with severe control and severe punishments if you go out of line—but most of all by showing “see how good we have it? You’re part of this family, you’re rich and powerful without having to do anything except vote once in a while. Why would you NOT vote on us?”
