If we look closely, we will soon realize that everything favors tyranny. Religious institutions, political institutions, educational institutions...
The problem is humanity has a tendency to pick or gravitate to morally weak specimens for leadership. We also have a tendency to "believe" authority which often leads us astray. Would a wolf pack pick a weak leader? Would a wolf pack let a weak leader remain in position once weaknesses are exposed?
- MisterTea 8y agoYou have to define weak first.
- msiyer 8y agoLook at "leaders" all around the world. Past and present. And look at condition of the world around you. It is people's fault that they become our "leaders". It is a crime that we let them remain in position.
- maxxxxx 8y agoHas there ever been a leader that you would approve of?
- falcolas 8y agoProbably the ones you hear very little about. The ones who rebuilt after a famous leader's wars, whose only recorded achievements were to create an environment of relative riches that later leaders could exploit or fight over.
- mercurysmessage 8y agoThere is no such thing as an alpha wolf, btw. That study was actually showing parents leading wolf pups.
- Angostura 8y ago> political institutions, educational institutions... So democracy and schooling favors tyranny? I'd like to see your working.
