    Truth. I mean, don’t get me wrong, I’d love to see a society where nobody lords over anybody, but I’m not crazy enough to think I can achieve that by burning everything down or putting a dictator in charge.

    On the contrary, I consider a classless society to be the social Holy Grail that’s probably only achievable with Star Trek-tier technology. I’m sure it’ll happen eventually, but not today, and that’s okay.

      Much easier to pull off government like that with a smaller population. Things get a bit more complicated with several hundreds of millions or billions.

      People would also have to be altruistic by nature as well but just go to a grocery store and see how many shopping carts are not put back!
