“Once you’re a member, you’re recognized as having proven your worth. It means that you’re deserving of the highest respect. Within the league, everyone has the maximum amount of social capital. No more or less. If you’re a member, you’re like a sibling to everyone else. ”—that part sound like the great explanation of how small groups of very close friends function. Where everyone really is like a sibling for everyone else and there’s effectively no struggle for status (talking from the personal experience here). But it seems really doubtful that this can be achieved in a group of any significant size, as long as we’re dealing with humans.
That’s a horribly depraved thing to do. I’m not even accounting for environments that are that low-trust. Those just can’t work. It’s a non-starter. If this is really the kind of thing you’re dealing with, and I am the exception as opposed to you, we should think about increasing trust in other ways.

Yeah. Also, I’ve been actively kicked out of too many groups of close friends that I personally formed with my own agency and initiative.
“Once you’re in, you’re in for life” just doesn’t work.

Or (excuse me) you should move out of the US.
