I’m not sure I follow the analogy here, are you implying technical leadership is committing heinous crimes against humanity?

It’s a joke on the original anecdote’s timeless formula of double-filtered appeal to patriarchal authority (the father relaying the wisdom of the boss to the son).

Isn't there a matriarchal equivalency anyway? I always see this sort of comparison made. Any sort of -archy society seems like it'll go to shit.

Nobody expects the technical inquisition!
"My father, an Inquisitor himself, told me of the time when the Grand Inquisitor promoted him. Ordinary priests are a dime a dozen, the great man said, but it takes special skill to be an Inquisitor. And that's why you never let them go back to the pulpit when you do find a good one."
