It seems humans are designed to cooperate in hierarchies. The amount of leader personalities will always be smaller than the follower types. This leads me to suspect leader type people will always draw in followers or subjects. We can influence the culture to be less dependant on leaders and more respectful of individual rights. Keep in mind, this is going against alot of evolution so humanity has a long wait before that change happens. The Enlightenment was only a few years ago on Mans timeline. We need more time to understand how we changed psychologically from an evolution perspective. I suspect you are a leader and this is why you think in these terms. Followers find us puzzling and are fearful to even think about self determination. I will continue to think free and someday my body will follow.

The difference between a tyrant and a leader though is that the leader is held to the same standard under the law. He or she does not enjoy double standards or special protections. I'm all for leaders and governance, but government means there are double standards and special protections. It means some rule others. We don't need that as humans.
Agreed 100%. I know humans can make this change. An institution should be organized with a charter to continue promoting the new paradigm using the standard you mentioned. People will come and go but the institution will live on. Designing the charter would be a great start.
