Why are hierarchy and male dominance so prevalent in human societies?
According to anthropologists David Graeber & David Wengrow, it’s because people were “self-consciously experimenting with different social possibilities,” and then we somehow got stuck this way. Meanwhile according to Jordan Peterson, it’s just human nature.
Thankfully for humanity, both of these views are very, very wrong.
