I disagree. The fact that people have friction between them is de facto
since the beginnings of human history. It has nothing to do with the
existence of rules -- rules are a collateral issue only. Rules are an
attempt at a solution, and I think I could fairly point out that rules have
not worked and that the only people inclined to follow the rules are those
that probably benefit from them in some way.

This is no more than an attempt to force Suz to another position, which is
outrageous. She's the head admin, if she is creating problems rather than
solving them it will be for her to decide.
And geez people -- this is capital, pure and simple, we are talking about!
There is likely nothing more complicated, or secretly violent, than commerce
