This take is so hot its a sauna; I really wanna only live in places that have one

Super hot take: the reason you could historically tell a lot about a person by how they treat the powerless is that society historically gave permission to mistreat the powerless, so treating them nicely was revealing. Society currently gives permission to mistreat the powerful.

It is axiomatically impossible for society to mistreat the powerful. To not understand that indicates a lack of basic logic skills.

Yes, exactly. If someone is mistreated by society that fact in itself means they are not powerful.
