Gorillas in our Midst

 


We have two gorillas as World Leaders, one in the White house and one in No 10 Downing Street.

The Great Ginger Backed Beast, if he loses the Presidential Election could get a career as a stand up comedian.  The same goes for the Albino Gorilla, the Johnson could do the rounds of after dinner speaking IF Covid-19 ever goes away.

I don't mean to denigrate gorillas by writing this but along with Bolsanaro and Erdogan the World seems to have too many hard men in power. Men who could leave their office and go and work as bouncers at nightclubs with the snaking queues not batting their long lashes that Dumb & Dumber are working the doors.

I am not going to argue for more women leaders. Thatcher did for me there. I am going to argue for softer men. We don't need the knuckle dragging Alpha Males who can't get a comprehensible sentence out of their cake holes. As an Omega male myself I would like to see more Beta males in positions of Leadership. Capitalism has created too many bullies. There are too many bullies in society full stop.

For the sake of more caring societies we need a mixture of female leaders and Beta male leaders and perhaps Omegas like myself who have opted out of competing but who have some very good ideas as can be witnessed if you are following this blog on a regular basis.


    As the great bard Bill of Stratford said in the quote above, some have greatness thrust upon them. Whatever your pronoun, society needs the ones who do not seek great power. Johnson & Trump went searching for the top jobs as infants. They want power and influence. The difference they want to make to society requires flexing more power and influence. The hope is that both will disperse to nought.


 So where are the 'soft' lads and lasses who through by sheer strength of their kindness and humility and integrity will lead our future softer states? Hopefully this Pandemic will have knocked the rougher and courser edges from societies alpha males not allowing them access to the bar and nightclubs to strut their stuffs. The Zoos are still open and that's where the Alpha male can hopefully be consigned along with the other animal species endangered by Global Warming & Climate Change.
