Ruling the World

TheCatWoman

What would you do if you suddenly became empress/or of everything? Obviously we'd all stop wars, end world hunger etc etc, but what more personal things would you do?

I'd make us able to walk a mile in another persons shoes, so we'd get to know what it felt like to be NT and of course they would feel ours.

There are more personal things I'd like to be rid of like all members of the turnip family, BBQ's and people stating the bleeding obvious as though it's some sort of massive revelation.

I'd make shoe and clothing manufacturers make clothes and shoes in a wider range of sizes, shapes, colours and styles AND MOST IMPORTANTLY keep seeling jumpers althrough winter, and not just xmas jumpers, I want normal jumpers!

I'd make the internet work properly, like it used to, when you could search for something and actually get results matching your search criteria and not give you air fryers when you want wellingtons, stuff like that.

  • deligate and add checks on my own power ... no one person shoud have that much power. The more power is centralised away from the people the more 'democracy' becomes tyrany by stealth. That's my real answer. ... I will add funnyer answers later

    Absolute power corrupts absolutely, as we have learned the hard way during Covid, even if a country was ruled by a committee of elite military officers or in some of the other formats of communism in the Soviet era or in CCP China - the “ruling dynasty” of the North Korean regime also has its own problems where the leader had his own brother tracked down and murdered abroad, communist Russia aside and involving espionage, even the terrible things going on in CCP China in our times are nothing compared to the North Korean regime - the common thread running through all of these regimes is corruption of all kinds at some level, often involving a massive transfer of wealth upwards from the people to the elites, who don’t even abide by the same rules that they impose on their own people - we see similar hypocrisy in supposedly “democratic” regimes, even if they are leftist and/or socialist or marxist in nature, they always feel the need to be “top dog” at the expense of others misery and poverty, as a way of being a player on the world stage in some way, which sadly even includes those in religious-based regimes of which they are leaders

    People hear blindly support Palestine, while the Unionists blindly support Israel.

    US Taxes fund both sides.

    However, the reaction is still scripted; according to whether you're Left or Right. It's basically Market Research.
