It has to operate as an institution because it builds on itself.
You don't just go from fire to manufacturing semiconductors in one step. There's a skill tree.
Anything that operates as an institution will eventually be infiltrated and subverted by leftists.
The major contribution of the 20th century historians was the observation that cultures and social institutions have a lifetime just like biological organisms do. Leftism is quite literally social cancer, it appears when the organism is old and kills it off.
