(Ruminations)
It appears that democracy encourages overemphasis of the political. That Communism overemphasizes authority. That religion overemphasizes mysticism. But it also appears that That Monarchy emphasizes the social – because it is an extension of the family and tribe.
Given the stresses of exposure to political competition, we would all I assume prefer apolitical lives, because we lacked political agency and therefore political competition with one another. At least that’s my observation out there in the rest of the world.
Most people, the vast majority, of whom I am certainly not a member, would prefer some form of serfdom. Where their lives – as is more true in Europe – are heavily bounded by authorities who take responsibility for the world at scale. Ensure our welfare is never at risk. And our efforts, if we wish to expend them, are dedicated to the pursuit of surpluses – meaning ‘desires’ not needs.
