If you think hierarchy is natural and good you're a conservative or some other kind of reactionary.

Hierarchies invite revolt and need a lot of force to keep in place.

I did not talk about natural, I did not talk about good.

If you think there are no hierarchies everywhere, then we have a completely different worldview.

It’s sounds like we’re running into the is/ought problem - just because there is hierarchy doesn’t mean that’s the way it ought to be.
