2nd Block - Pre-Read "Excerpts from Leviathan" by Brittney Massengill https://padlet.com/brittneymassengill1/8xz36dxtupofyef7 Think about what motivates people to obey and fight alongside a leader such as Beowulf. His warriors were primarily driven by LOYALTY to support him. In contrast to that, there are some who are bound by LEGALITY to stand beside their leader. In your opinion, which one of these motivating factors, legality or loyalty, creates stronger community cooperation? Explain why you chose your answer. en-us 2023-03-22 11:42:31 UTC 2023-03-22 13:44:38 UTC hello@padlet.com https://padlet.com/brittneymassengill1/8xz36dxtupofyef7/wish/2527179731 Loyalty, as if one is not loyal they may betray you throwing all consequences out the window.]]> 2023-03-22 13:39:07 UTC https://padlet.com/brittneymassengill1/8xz36dxtupofyef7/wish/2527179731 Loyalty https://padlet.com/brittneymassengill1/8xz36dxtupofyef7/wish/2527180341 If someone is loyal to a leader, it is harder to get them to betray/go against the leader. ]]> 2023-03-22 13:39:33 UTC https://padlet.com/brittneymassengill1/8xz36dxtupofyef7/wish/2527180341 https://padlet.com/brittneymassengill1/8xz36dxtupofyef7/wish/2527182280 If someone is forced to follow orders from someone they don't respect or have no loyalty to, their reliability is not good. So loyalty is more important.]]> 2023-03-22 13:40:43 UTC https://padlet.com/brittneymassengill1/8xz36dxtupofyef7/wish/2527182280 https://padlet.com/brittneymassengill1/8xz36dxtupofyef7/wish/2527183094

Loyalty creates a stronger community cooperation since it enables the people to build trust in their leader and have a stronger bond or confidence to stand in battle with them. ]]> 2023-03-22 13:41:10 UTC https://padlet.com/brittneymassengill1/8xz36dxtupofyef7/wish/2527183094 https://padlet.com/brittneymassengill1/8xz36dxtupofyef7/wish/2527183271 Loyalty because following someone you know won't turn their back on you motivates you to stick with them. Knowing that they are loyal to you and your group, you feel almost protected forever.

If someone is forced to be somewhere or forced to do something, there is far less drive to do such a task well. It is an external drive. This is in strong contrast to loyalty where there is a stronger, internal drive to complete the task at hand.]]> 2023-03-22 13:42:14 UTC https://padlet.com/brittneymassengill1/8xz36dxtupofyef7/wish/2527185050 https://padlet.com/brittneymassengill1/8xz36dxtupofyef7/wish/2527188989 Loyalty is better since it comes with having a strong bond with someone.
