That’s a disingenuous way to frame it.

No. The issue is that you are engaged in a contradiction.

You have agreed that problems for groups that are disempowered is a consequence of one small group holding power.

Yet, you have also tacitly defended, as the form of system you most prefer, a system in which one small group holds power.

Under almost any system, those traits are somewhat advantageous when it comes to power

I agree.

For such reasons, as well as others, I would defend the assertion that problems for groups that are disempowered is a consequence of one small group holding power.

Very few if any other democracies…

…when there’s almost none for those at the bottom.

I have no idea how any of it is related to resolving the issues identified as consequent of one small group holding power.
