There were long ancestral lines of humans who were very very keen on not redistributing power for many generations.
They were called kings. Cutting their heads off was the best thing to happen to society, ever.
Take the long view. Our particular economic and ideological moment is not worth defending.
- shadowtree 4mo agoThis is ahistoric drivel. China and Russia are simple examples of the fallout of "cutting king's heads". So awesome in China that they went straight back to a lifetime emperor now. The French Revolution and its fallout (communism, fascism) killed more humans than any other historic movement, triggering 2 world wars, including numerous genocides.
