Seems those truly selfless in their nationalism (/ anarchism/ or etc)
ultimately cede the actual seats of power to others. And those others end
up being less than selfless.

It's a dichotomy just begging to be resolved, perhaps ever unresolvable?

When the selfless in service, retire to their normal average life, the
joys, loves and heartaches of family for example, and the seats of power
then wielded by those who desire such, the cycle of tyranny once again
begins. "Who wants to be involved in politics? I just want to live my
creative/ productive life thank you very much!"

How the mind craves answers... the spirit, higher purpose
