Maybe true for some. But many people wants to be told what to do.

If you use this discussion to go into the direction of having or not having leadership, because some might not need it. I think far too many people needs it.

But it does not mean, it has to be organized in the way we have now. Centralized, one authority above all, decides in everything.

I always advocate for local, mostly autonomous communities. Local meaning that everyone can know everyone in a reasonable geographic area. More dense than that, you get way too much urge to centralize. Less dense than that, you get completely ineffectual response times to (actual) emergencies.

It's a bit of a double-edged sword. Allow me to explain. When it comes to leadership on a grand scale, one doesn't necessarily need to have a good nature to be a good and effective leader. There are two essential and core aspects that we always seem to end up neglecting when choosing our leaders: assurance that they have and will maintain their good intentions, and honesty. Lol. Throughout my 39 years I don't think I've ever seen a politician who possesses those two essential qualities.
