Law is underpinned by power. As long as there have been power differentials, the powerful have perceived any slight against that power as something akin to a crime.
If you have dogs then you have seen the animal form of this. The world is organized around power and those who exercise it.

The powerful don't decide unilaterally what language is, although of course they try to influence it. If the dictionary said "pizza" was "a machine for flying people through the air, suspended by a rotating blade" you would realize the dictionary is just wrong. Similarly, if a legislator says he can decide what plants you do or don't smoke & enforce his decision with armed goons, you should realize he is simply wrong about the law.
This is why America's second amendment is so important in order to preserve some balance of power
