A great explanation of why the rugged individual mythology is perpetuated by the knights.
I'm all for self-reliance, but only if it's realistic.
If your opponent in a negotiation is not self-reliant, then you shouldn't be either.
Humanity wouldn't be where it is without MUTUAL AID. There is no such thing as rugged individualism in nature, it's only in capitalism.
