Ah, but there's the rub isn't it? Human nature being what it is there is no credible real world alternative. There are wolves and sheep and always will be.
Incidentally my only alternative is fantastical as hell as it comes from the Culture books. The only way human beings will be truly equal is post-scarcity and dispassionate AI control basically taking every decision out of our hands.

In terms of social hierarchies or in terms of Trump being an example for everything wrong with the current setups?

He just tried really hard to, and would have, except his minions all know he's such a shithead that they refused to carry out his commands. Doesn't that make you feel sooooooooo much better about this administration and the GOP? 8D
Hey the least charitable interpretation of that. Not surprising coming from you.

It's definitely everyone is a shithead but you and not a man being frustrated by a false accusation.

But yeah: he didn't aid/embed Russia in their campaign manipulation because no one in his campaign realized Russia was actively offering to help and he didn't obstruct the Mueller Inquiry because his crew didn't bother to follow to his orders.

He's only innocent because he is too incompetent to be guilty.
That line of reasoning actively contradicts the new narrative being crafted by the media and the Dems that the Trump campaign actively capitalized on russian interference.

I'm not able to answer that in just a few sentences and I struggle to properly formulate an answer. So, are you willing to wait, while I make my mind up about how best to answer this? That is, assuming you actually want an answer.

Several hundred former federal prosecutors have just signed a statement that from the publicly available information there is sufficient evidence to charge Trump were it not against DOJ policy to indict a sitting president.
