As already said, it is not an requirement to have one software, you can have many, developed by many different individuals/communities/collectives.

It's like arguing that dialects/languages need an central organization to evolve. Obvious, it can help to promote one specific dialect over the other, but a central government is not an requirement.

need I say more?

Having different individuals/communities/collectives is not the point where I equate it to the textbook definition of Federalism as I have said above, but it is that S o m e o n e in this case a single individual/community/collective creates and maintains that of the others thus creating a hegemony.

right. But I've not been speaking about that kind.

Do you differentiate hegemony and culture? Why do you speak english, instead of a language you invented yourself?

Hegemony within the textbook definition as earlier, is when the use of one aspect of a culture is being standardized as a mode of communication or expression. For example, the policy before in our country against the use of mother tongue.

Culture would be when we agree upon using a certain language or tradition whether implicitly or explicitly. In my case, I am a polyglot, I'm more than happy to use other languages even my own in discussions.But we agreed with english because its mutually intelligible
