I’m sorry but I just saw this comment now. My use of the forum can be infrequent.
I think your point is fascinating and your shift in perspective and using history is powerful.
I take your point about this figure and how disruptive (in the normal, typical sense of the word and not SV sense) he was.
I don’t have much deep thoughts. I guess that it is true that institutions are more important now, at least for the reason since there’s 8B people so single people should have less agency.
I am usually suspicious about stories like this since it’s unclear how institutions and cultures are involved. But I don’t understand the context well (classical period Greece). I guess they had https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ostracism#Purpose for a reason.
