D.C. has become a Guild System with an hierarchy and line of accession much like the Royal Court or priestly classes.

I think that, in a way, it is much simpler and more rational. When I was in school, if anyone tried to bully me, I thumped 'em, preferably in the eye, so that it showed. They beat the hell out of me, but they let me be thereafter, because they didn't like being marked by someone smaller. When my grandson was in school a great and holy ban against 'violence' had appeared however, so when he was bullied and hit them, he got punished. The school he went to later, however, was most progressive. As you probably know, a favourite bullying-tactic is to call your victim 'gay' (or something more obscene), and anyone so bullied suddenly discovered that complaining of sexual discrimination got bullying stopped, and the more complicated your claim, the better. We suffered somewhat from popular astonishment during a period when he dressed up as a girl for anything public with which we were also involved (he is big, tough, and highly masculine). Fortunately we passed the tolerance test and, having left the bully-world of education behind, he has been able to become happily male again. I think people are a lot brighter and more sensible that this 'peer pressure' stuff suggests.
