You say this:
> It does not take a deliberate will behind something for it to be pulled toward this sort of inequality, and presenting it as if that's what's happened suggests that if we could only defeat the Evil People who "engineered" it this way, we could make it better.
...but then also this:

So maybe there are "evil" people and deliberation at work, and it's not just emergent complexity?
- danaris 6y agoThere can be "evil" people who will work to prevent the dismantling of a system, even if those people did not deliberately design and build that system. All that is required is that they recognize that the status quo benefits them, and that's a very common situation for those among the elite.
