We're an anarcho-syndicalist commune. We take it in turns to act as a sort of executive officer for the week.
But all the decision of that officer have to be ratified at a special biweekly meeting.
By a simple majority in the case of purely internal affairs,--
King Arthur: The Lady of the Lake, her arm clad in the purest shimmering samite, held aloft Excalibur from the bosom of the water, signifying by divine providence that I, Arthur, was to carry Excalibur. That is why I am your king.
Dennis the Peasant: Listen. Strange women lying in ponds distributing swords is no basis for a system of government. Supreme executive power derives from a mandate from the masses, not from some farcical aquatic ceremony.
Arthur: Be quiet!
Dennis the Peasant: You can't expect to wield supreme power just 'cos some watery tart threw a sword at you!
That scene was based on an actual historical village communities, such as those in Castile, and the later medieval conflict between the historically self-governing communities and the centralized order that had previously tolerated them: https://digital.csic.es/bitstream/10261/220237/1/06_Communit...
It's amazing how much better media inspired by history is when it's based on real history and not the mythologized version. I noticed this recently rewatching the Pirates of the Carribean series (mythologized), then Black Sails (closer to reality, especially after season 2 when the showrunner read some current literature on pirates). It turns out a lot of pirate ships were democracies, they were often pro-abolition and happy to take on freed slaves as crew, and they didn't much care who you loved.
