When I went through teacher training they called manufacturing societal trust 'education'. And it's anything but unnecessary.

The trust is perhaps necessary but the catalytic consensus items are largely arbitrary I think.

I'm listening to Sapiens right now. It seems like common myths and consensus are what humans need to function in groups above 100.
