Recently reminded that referring to Indigenous cultures as "socialist" is misapplication of Eurocentric thinking.
Indigenous people tend not to focus on the means of production in economies, preferring that sustainability, reciprocity, and care take priority.

When I greet nature as family,
a tree, a smudge of lichen,
the invisible complexity of the sky,
I feel a reciprocity of love.
When I reach for wonder as a receptive student,
I always find it reaching back.

please dont rage out when someone isnt very forthcoming of the "kindness" you are offering it's weird. Also start apologies by NOT being dismissive. The term we use here is instrumental reciprocity, which refers to the practice of doing a favor with the expectation of a return. They absolutely

autistic socialising features a lack of 'typical' reciprocity
e.g., many autistics (and neurodivergents) have a habit of responding to conversations with 'I experienced something that made me feel similarly'. a neurotypical person often reads that as someone trying to make a conversation about them

Donald Trump has no real friends, either personally or as a supposed leader. He betrays everyone in his life sooner or later. He has no concept of kindness, empathy, or reciprocity. He and his brainless minions are isolating the U.S. He'd like us to be another North Korea if he could.

Also - is there a question if reciprocity. It is not possible to enforce a UK libel award in the USA. So why should it be possible to enforce one of theirs here?

I agree, but it's counter to conservative morality.
We think "fairness and reciprocity" means treating others as we'd like to be treated.
Conservatives think it means treating others 'as they deserve'. (Haidt, The Righteous Mind)
Note that 'as they deserve' is very judgmental and ugly.

Help I've fallen down a snakes on a staff rabbit hole.
![By extension of its association with Mercury and Hermes, the caduceus is also a symbol of commerce and negotiation, two realms in which exchange balanced by reciprocity is recognized as an ideal. [6][7][8] This association is ancient, and consistent from classical antiquity to modernity.[9][10] The caduceus is also a symbol of printing, by extension of the attributes of Mercury associated with writing and eloquence.
Although the Rod of Asclepius, which has only one snake and no wings, is the traditional and more widely used symbol of medicine, the caduceus is sometimes used by healthcare organizations. Given that the caduceus is primarily a symbol of commerce and other non-medical symbology, many healthcare professionals disapprove of this use.
