Where in history has there been a system that didn't either 1) Result in rich and poor or 2) Result in oppression by force? Egalitarianism doesn't scale past around 450 people without the introduction of some form of hierarchy.
It takes compassion and faith in truth, in sufficiently large doses, to challenge such systems.
Principles can be used to challenge such systems from within. The overall history of the United States is a good example of this. Also, the history of the past several years is a testament to what happens when principles are forgotten in favor of feelings.
