There is a reason a king of the hill exists in various forms. He is king of that hill because has eliminated his competition in one way or the other... dirty if he has too. In order for him to maintain power, he must make it so that within his community there is relative peace along with many things to keep them occupied.
To control someone, you have to isolate them from outside influence. Just the other day I went to a sandwich shop. There were 17 people in the shop... a few couples. The one's who were waiting for their meal were on their phones. Those who were finished with their meals went straight for their phones. I watched them quietly stare at the glow of their screens. Although people were together under one roof, nobody was talking. I have rarely seen such a classic example of isolationism so plainly. It seemed as though each person was living in separate realities.
