  • good (inclusive) leadership

    That’s a neurological impossibility and we don’t gain anything by pretending otherwise.

    whenever there’s a group of people together, someone will be the leader

    You have a friend who’s always exerting their will over everyone else? This is thankfully not my experience.

    Hierarchy has definitely infected our lives and thinking to a sickening extent. People pursuing power for what they see as good is the problem. Trying to influence what the power-hungry see as good is a fools errand because the effect that power has on the brain means “good” will always become “good for me” as you gain power.

    The only way to a better world is people rejecting the self destructive desire to stand above. We need stories and social infrastructure that works towards that goal.
