Of course the idea of being initiated into a secret circle is extremely attractive. It appeals to our sense of ego, intrigue, romantic notions of the other. It's the stuff of novels and films .. it's the beginning of a great story. The personal advice given sounds good. But the dangerous part for me is the inference that we need to consider that those above us necessarily know best, and we should, by necessity, capitulate control.
The fact that such layers of information, access to information, and access to power exist should not supplant the fact that this system embodies one single way the world can be ordered.
What would happen if everyone had access to everything?
