The system is based on subversion. Votings are binding, but everything is a question of definition and the meaning of language. If media matrix (mass media) tells the citizen that everything is fine, then everything is fine, even if the house is burning.
Quick example how they ignore the votings:
Majority votes against vanilla icecream.
Politicians interpret it as: Majority is against plain vanilla icecream, it wants vanilla icecream with chocolate bits.
