So long as heirarchical structures endure, with the few managing the
many from any ideological or intellectual top down control, it is
unlikely much will change for most humans. Royalty of thought is so
deeply embedded in "advanced" societies it is nearly unavoidable.
Being on top is inevitably corrupting. "Best" minds, talents and
skills are as inequal, unjust, self-satisfying, collegial and
standards enforcing as "best" wealth, conviction, rewards, titles,
perquisites, followers, believers.
St Peters or Mecca brazen spectacularism and global faith
obsequiousness to support autocratic political powerhouses no
different than exclusive nuclear club global intimidation terrorism,
or, more trivially, degrees, prizes and honors awarding for "best
and brightest." Apologias for whatever agenda are sine qua non for
kiss-up kick-down.
