Muh Hierarchies

Why do attempts to abolish Hierarchies in society fail? The answer is because you can't. Hierarchies are the result of differences and inequalities that will always arise, and attempts to abolish the concept of Hierarchy can only make it change form.

I uh...actually would trust the park ranger to get the kids to safety unharmed and unrobbed more than I would trust Marisa.

I find it hilarious this video covers an actual topic and you slam touhou into this like this, comedy gold

The people who say they want to "abolish hierarchies" (leftoids) usually just want to reverse natural hierarchies with themselves ontop, rather than abolishing the concepts outright. Same goes for "equality", "inclusion", "fairness", and what have you. It's called "coalition of the fringes" for a reason.

Ancom: that’s not how it

Soulist: Yeah, exactly, abolish the laws of physics

Their argument is based on a flawed concept of egalitarianism. They assume everyone is equal and any inequality of outcomes is based on exploitation. The problem with that is they ignore individual choice. Collectivism seeks to force people to be the same and make the same choices for some unrealistic utopia. That's why when someone says anarchy is the rejection of government and hierarchies I have to ponder if they really consider that makes anarchy impossible as nature itself and personal interactions are always hierarchical.

Heirachies are often abused (e.g. rigid caste systems, acting like someone with higher overall status is better at a task they're worse at, inherited status, differences in legal status)
A case can be made to attack those parts of heirachies
Pretending they don't exist at all or can be totally removed is however very silly

[uniqueprogressive]

Every functioning society has a hierarchy.

There is a difference between authority and expertise.

Rather than rejecting or accepting hierarchies and presuming them to be naturally evolved in the manner which they occur, one ought to recognize the flexibility and overlap of hierarchies as they occur in different segments of society and for different persons. One may be economically more secure (i.e. wealthier) than his neighbors, placing him as dominant in the economic sphere of things, but is also low on numbers (i.e. his neighbors outnumber him and are more capable of exerting effective social pressures, boycotts, etc.). This all comes down to balancing power dynamics/relationships between people, and one begins to do this by recognizing their own self-worth and standing. If one is uncomfortable with their standing amongst others in a particular segment of society, he may work to improve his standing and those around him to provide for more balance. Communal strategies are not the only means of achieving this, nor are individual means the sole source, but rather each situation may require a different action to balance out social standing amongst those in a group. Pluralism is key.

When they complain about the 1%, aren't they appealing to the hierarchy of needs? They shouldn't have all that extra money because they don't need it whereas other people could need the excess.

It’s worth noting, it’s not just about the greater ability, it’s more so about the scarcity of an ability, in a position where there are a few factory owners, and thousands of workers, the owners are at an advantage, but if instead you had hundreds of factory owners, and only 10 workers who could each fully staff factory Then the workers would have a large advantage in negotiating. If there was only one of each, you could assume that they have equal bargaining power, and would need to reach a agreement that satisfies both of them.

Oh yeah! now you're speaking my language

"...Utopian and unrealistic..." Funny way to say "dystopian and unrealistic"

[TheMadVentriloquist]

They do not desire to abolish rather invert, all under the guise of progressive humanitarianism which itself is anti-natal and human in practice.
Just look at Western population birthrates from the 1920s to present day.

Bro explained Tocqueville with fumos. We’ve achieved peak internet

[markgel]

Bb but you didn’t debunk my theory and the world I think would happen in abolition of hierarchy

[TheGhostbuster]

Fumos are objectively the better option.

As a brocialist I agree 100% with this video. I get called a misogynist and not a real socialist because I think we can never get rid of hierarchies, but we still should take care of people especially men at the bottom of society. We also need to have ways to prevent inequality from getting so bad it collapses a nation, or results in mass traitorship because people only see the elites being served by government and not them.
