>>11891624Hierarchy exists because whatever built this material universe likes the idea of enslavement, power struggles, and sociopathy. Someone with a high EQ is more likely to better at playing the game setup by the creator. The trick is to know the rules, and then only play using rules you prefer, and ignoring the rest. Anything else IS just sociopathy. You can have a high EQ while not being a face-stepping brown-noser, though.
Though if you have a high EQ and don't capitalize on every power-play presented, does that imply you're low IQ or that you just have a code of conduct and some degree of self respect?
You know anon, maybe you're onto something there. Someone with a low IQ won't have any set of ethics and will instead just use what works when it works. They can't rely on IQ, so they just pull strings as they are presented. Pretty nefarious desu.
