    Sure. It’s a barter society where one class holds literally all of the power.

    “It’s this deal because I’m a god!” You’re just not gunna argue with a god on earth.

      You’re phrasing these like they’re contradictory statements when they’re not incompatible concepts at all.

        They’re morally incompatible if nothing else boss.

          Not at all? Yeah one class had most of the political/legal power because they were backed by who everyone believed was the incarnation of their god so it was hard to argue. Do/can you argue with the IRS (or whatever government entity collects taxes for you)? Food/resources/labor were still collected as taxes/tithes to support that class which managed their society, which is basically the same as any society that has currency.

            I both can and have argued against the IRS and won. The IRS accepts fact and objective reality, though the idea of pharoh in court trying to prove objectively they are God personified does make me giggle.
