A society isn’t strong because of who sits on top. It’s strong because of who it refuses to leave behind.
The real measure of power isn’t dominance — it’s care. Not how many you command, but how many you protect. The vulnerable, the small, the forgotten — they’re not the cost of strength. They ARE the strength.
Any system can put someone on top. The hard part — the real part — is building one that holds everyone with dignity.
