This post is so I can start collating a few links on the topic of the evil known as social status. (I will do a similar post on the evil known as gossip, if I get the energy.)
From the Internet etc:
“I had another realization about the social hierarchy thing, it's kinda blowing my mind 🤯” https://youtu.be/HEPntUjL6tI
“The Psychology of Social Status” https://www.scientificamerican.com/article/the-psychology-of-social/ “How the pursuit of status can lead to aggressive and self-defeating behavior”
“social status (society)” Encyclopaedia Britannica https://www.britannica.com/topic/social-status
“Social status” Wikipedia https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Social_status&oldid=1242495109
“Social Class and Social Status” Oxford Bibliographies https://www.oxfordbibliographies.com/display/document/obo-9780199828340/obo-9780199828340-0085.xml
and
“Even in Australia, alarming levels of caste discrimination exist. We must fight it with evidence” https://www.theguardian.com/australia-news/commentisfree/2024/oct/30/even-in-australia-alarming-levels-of-caste-discrimination-exists-we-must-fight-it-with-evidence “Recognising caste oppression’s presence in our country’s south Asian diaspora is the first step towards stamping it out” This is recognisably wrong, and, in my opinion, is a more extreme version of the problem of social status, but still can be classified as - at least partly - being in that category
