How so? Vibes?
-
Name a single society where it hasn't happened.
-
At all, to any degree? Don't think that's possible, but it certainly happened to a far lesser extent in AES countries.
-
The extent to which it happens depends on the structures in place to prevent it. That's all I'm saying. If left unchecked, power corrupts.
-
It's still vibes-based, the post-office having a manage doesn't mean the system is tyrannical. How power is structured matters too.
-
The boss of the post office would absolutely be tyrannical if they could lol. In fact they often are. "Going postal" is a whole thing.
But generally, the system keeps them in check.
-
That seems like pseudoscience to me.
-
I'm sure there's been hundreds of studies on it, but it seems so obvious to anyone who knows any history that I don't feel like looking them up. Literally every society in the history of humanity, it's happened, as far as I'm aware. Power corrupts.

So, vibes, again.

You are obtuse and exhausting.

You cannot form an argument based on sound logic to save your life.
