You’re describing the effect of authority, which is illusory. The height of authority is the dictator, the authoritarian. People don’t put a dictator into power until they stop trusting themselves and they’ve finally decided to put their trust somewhere else.

This is an interesting perspective. I think this society conditions people to need the illusion of authority. That and belonging.

Once again, you've hit a currently relative topic for me. And you've described it all. 💜

We have some kind of mind meld/parallel existence 🔮🤣 I’m so sorry I’m behind on reading your essay! I’ll get caught up and I bet I’ll find more synchronicities.
