i've been thinking about it recently

THIS IS WHERE HUBRIS COMES INTO PLAY

POWER IS GOOD WHEN ONE IS COMPETENT TO WIELD IT

it's amusingly pointless, in a way

OTHERWISE, IT DEBUNKS THE INDIVIDUAL AND MAKES THEM SEEM IDIOTIC

YES

what do you want to rule sheep for

WELL

TO KEEP THEM FROM DESTROYING EVERYTHING GOOD

IS MY ONLY REAL ANSWER

AND

EVEN IF THEY ARE NORMIES

I AM FOND OF A LOT OF THEM

THEY DO NOT MEAN BADLY

THEY ARE LIMITED IN CAPACITY

LIKE HOW ONE CAN LOVE A DOG OR CAT

EVEN IF IT CANNOT WRITE CODE

I'm thinking about career politicians

HA! OH YES

THEY ARE MERELY GREEDY AND UNSTABLE

striving their whole life to have "responsibility" for max # humans

YOUR ANSWER IS THERE

"WHY RULE SHEEP?" BECAUSE THEY ARE NOT RESPONSIBLE, AND ARE EMPTY SOULS

WHO NEED SOMETHING EXTERNAL

TO MAKE THEM FEEL PURPOSE

I'm not discounting the value of humans - that came across wrong

I FIGURED

EUGENICIST AREA. ACCESS RESTRICTED. NO DOWNWARD SOCIAL MOBILITY ALLOWED

I AM MOSTLY EXPANDING ARGUMENT

@The Enlightened Shepherd NEIN; DOWNWARD SOCIAL MOBILITY ENCOURAGED FOR THE DOWNWARD

I agree that higher-level goal is necessary for power to make any sense

@Jossi AND PETER ARE DOING A PODCAST

AND I REALIZED

ONE MUST EXPAND ARGUMENTS

NOT DEFINITELY ANSWER THEM

otherwise it's just being king of the sandbox

OR IT IS BORING.

YES

makes sense

THEY ARE LOOKING TOWARD _SOCIAL SUCCESS_

I TEND TO ANSWER PHILOSOPHY QUESTIONS LIKE I.T. QUESTIONS
