if you're an admin or moderator you should have to wear a hat that signifies your rank

no but seriously what is it with institutional power structures and hats

Show thread

Hats signifying authority is the only signifies of power that stretches beyond species itself, even nature understands that to have a big silly hat is to have power. Behold, figure A. A Chimpanzee by the name of Julie began to wear grass in her ear, and would replace it if it fell off. This gained her great popularity, and others in her group began to copy her behavior. The status represented by hats transcends nature itself.

frankly I think anarchists could use with our own kind of silly hats that designate specialization (as opposed to rank which wouldn't matter in a classical sense)
