> so people with guns should take other made up numbers and give them to people with guns, and tell the people with guns to make sure the bad people don’t do bad things to the stupid people

I think people who are doing the telling actually don't have guns; but are sitting atop a made-up hierarchy.

This is true. However, the people with the guns believe in the hierarchy so effectively the people doing the telling have the force of violence behind their words.
