I read it like I read an old ideological text I used to be fond of.
Used to call myself an anarchist as many influenced by the Austrian school of economics did. But it became apparent that there's a trap- the ideology prevents the implementation of principles, so you just basically embark on a never-ending attempt to "educate" the other people.
Well a lot of other people want power and will take it if they have a chance.
And a lot of people actually prefer to be subordinate. They want direction- someone to tell them what to do and/or that things will be okay.
In the bible there's patriarchy. There are kings. There's slavery- particularly noticeable because folks could be fine upstanding members of the faithful and keep slaves.
But instead of having a rather small hierarchy over our heads, now we have bureaucracy. Ten thousand rather than a few. And they tell us we are more free now. Hah!
