       @brother they try to prop up systems designed for this modern, broken age instead of ones before the flaws came into existance.

       @brother Such people were never taught how to make friends, so they’ve made friends with people who prey upon that ignorance. False friends, who lied to them, to anger and upset them, so that they would destroy their own in misdirected, sabatoged aggression.

       @cy While that's true, I try never to underestimate simple greed and stupidity. Few can handle even the power of middle management responsibly, being in charge of a commune...

       @brother Yeah, I’m only talking about people who go out screaming on the streets about some abstract thing, instead of forming a plan of action in private and not letting your enemies know until you’ve made your move. You can have the best friends in the world, and they’ll still fuck up on occasion.

       @brother  OTOH middle managers were created to amplify fuckups. They’re the dumb thugs who do the dirty work and take the blame, while upper management takes the profit. So the head of a commune wouldn’t be as likely to fuck up as someone whose job is to fuck people up. Doesn’t mean everyone would succeed at leading a commune; it’s just not fair to compare them to that asshole forcing unpaid overtime on workers at the local superstore.

       @cy That's a good point, middle management makes a lot more sense when you consider it in ship terms: as the people holding the whips, whipping the rowers.
