@schratze Egalitarianism? That's the term I've been using for this mostly, to explicitly encode the "no hierarchy of power" component

(This *is* a crucial component of anarchism, but unfortunately a lot of people who call themselves anarchists have a sorely lacking understanding of power dynamics)

@schratze Also yes, the dichotomy between "a hierarchical society" and "an egalitarian society" indeed *is* the crucial distinction in political ideology, the problem is that in most political discourse, a hierarchical society is simply *assumed*, as if the only thing about which there can be disagreement is exactly how that hierarchy is constructed and arranged.

I'm not convinced that this is accidental.
