basically the prestige layer (with all its inequality) is a system of redistribution, like communism but without denying human nature
moderns conceive of prestige as something to be acquired through personal qualities, education, etc. - if based on wealth it's "unfair"
@sarahdoingthing I find these reflections interesting but suspiciously functionalist: "Status 'is not the explanation' b/c food is useful."
@alexisgallagher oh no, the whole system would fall apart without prestige/status drive, but whence that drive?
