One of the things you learn in anthro is how many different societal structures have existed “successfully” in human history. Successfully is obviously relative as I don’t think anyone today could even imagine life before… the 1900s probably. “People in the past aren’t just us in different clothes” after all.
I introduced kings and priests, my bad. i didn’t want it to have a political turn.
I meant: the “economics” have been almost the same for millennia one after the other, so we could use that “model”. minus K&P means we should try to limit as much as possible human leeches, be it because they’re born in a particular family or they have a special relation with a super powerful dude - that never shows up, though.
then, about all of the “intricacies” of cultures, what’s successful or not, etc. : I do obviously agree. but we’re in such a moment where we can sum up a lot of human experience, because we have available the most complete library of all times. we also made huge progress in psychology, freeing ourselves from magical thinking. I think it’s reasonable thinking about overthrowing kings musk, bezos, potus, president of China, you name it. in the most peaceful way possible. we should destroy AI before it’s too late though: there are already AI contents that cannot be distinguished from reality. imagine a government producing AI videos to show how barbaric and violent is the enemy of that very same government.
many things are simplified, but I think, having on open mind whom is reading this, that I’ve explained my point. mobile it’s destructive when it comes to write a lot.
