Our increasingly deteriorating societies, where we respect one another less and less while idolizing inanity and glorifying competition, come with another symptom: Relying on dominance, which is dangerous – for the dominating parties as well. Such is the nature of dominance.
In a past post on injustice, I argued the following:
There will always be people that are stronger, faster, smarter, richer, luckier, or more powerful than you. If they are malevolent (and power or success predicated on money or strength very often is), they will come together and form groups which will become so ridiculously powerful that nothing can stop them.
There are a lot of malicious people on the planet – and a lot of stupid malicious people, which is a very dangerous combination. As a result, relying on dominance is dangerous because there is always the risk of ending up on the… receiving end of the dominance exchange.
