If you look at hunter gather societies, I don't see how PG's arguments are comical. They are by and large egalitarian and up until about 8k years ago almost all humans were part of small, egalitarian groups (i.e. hunter gatherer tribes), so our brains are evolved for that environment instead of being part of a multi-thousand people highly hierarchical organization https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hunter-gatherer#Social_and_economic_structure https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hunter-gatherer#Social_and_eco... .
