I too desire to see world level issues solved - but believe this will come from empowering those at the bottom and dismantling the systems that rule over them - because giving more power at the top will always inevitably lead to the focus of those at the top being primarily on preserving their power, and this always leads to dystopian results.

If egalitarianism is when equality is respected and honoured then I believe this is incompatible with unequal power structures & I do not believe any system of ‘management’ over people can ever be legitimate because it is never truly wholly consented to.

However, if you consider horizontal organisation to be hierarchal then we may be using that word in a different way too.
