laziness about thinking and the ulterior motive of tyranny are the reason obviously. there's some certain old books that talk about this problem. some doctrinal interpretations consider that "worldly" authority must be obeyed. well, i think that when you live around a monster, you have to constantly think about what the monster is going to do to you in every situation. the role of authority is ideal for a megalomaniacal psychopaths who have celestial sized self opinions. no man should have that power. or woman, whatever. no living thing. it's only laziness that keeps people from stopping it. they get used to the steady process of stripping their rights, and then at a certain point, economically and psychologically people break down and you get discord. the cause was the authority. being wielded by someone using it to stroke their ego, and entertain them with the spectacle of people doing stupid shit contrary to their interests, the more bloody and brutal, the better.
