The optimum function of a headman from the family, clan, tribe, nation, empire (civilization), is not to lead outside of war – it is to function as a judge of last resort in matters of conflict between those who lead, and to limit those who lead to the people’s interests.

In simple terms, we are all compensated for our success in outwitting Time. The more of it we outwit the more we save others, the more we are compensated. Unfortunately, the scarcity of the good and number of people involved in its production, and the number of people who desire it, determines that compensation. Therefore products are more rewarding that services, are more rewarding than information to groups, and the inverse to individuals. This explains the pricing structure.

We are ‘Generous’ when we say they lack Agency. We are ‘Kind’ when we say they are just dim. We are ‘forgiving’ when we say they are just NPC’s. We are ‘honest’ when we say they are just talking animals – the domestic Pets of the left.
(Ouch)

( The irony of the hard right using oven metaphors with utter confidence that they didn’t exist, and gas metaphors with utter confidence the only gas was used for delousing linens. )
