Lol no harm, that’s why I am here to have interesting discussions and different views!
My personal view is that it was a survival tactic to live in packs to have a central authority/Alfa male and we too that and still run with it today!
We like to think we so complex but in fact we still have a lot those animal traits governing our subconscious.
While those places you mention have “more” freedom it’s all relative! I’ve been to Egypt it’s not as free as you might think, a lot of tenseness and social governing as well as a military presence
Even in a he developed world it’s the same the reigns are just a little looser but if anything this whole situation has shown that socialist, communist or capitalist they all authoritarian
It’s all the same thing painted with different coat of paint, it’s neofeudilism now run by “elected” aristocrats
