Let's just turn it around.
Why don't you show me a society with absolutely no rules of conduct? Where everyone does exactly what they want, all the time?
Let's just turn it around.
Why don't you show me where anyone is claiming such a thing? You conflated practices of "shunning" with the customs of all "tribal people." There are variants of exile and rehabilitation that run through a spectrum of possible options to all people who are self governing. Who exactly are you arguing with?
Thanks for proving me right.
I only bothered with one sentence, but you took the time to point out that all self governing people practice some form of social control.
Thanks again.
having rules =/= rigid, all-encompassing, near unbreakable power structures.
You and your housemates can make rules. You cant throw each other in prison. Big difference
Next time you decide to put words in my mouth, please order a side of chips and salsa.
You're definitely equating rules and hierarchy. But I will order the chips next time I promise. I'll see about the salad
