For the ASD individual (an adjective noun) with good coping and rapport, the Peter Keating method works very well. It only involves giving all the appearances of being sociable.


My plans include wacked up things like becoming president of the US, then marrying the princess of Liechstein and making myself king of Liechstein and the American Empire, or simply setting up a complex hierarchy with me on top, and I have a governor for each continent, and each governor sets up a hierarchy for their region, and once the full hierarchy is established we take over the world from the bottom up.


By running things in the background, there is less of a chance that one will die in the unlikely chance that a rebel hero appears. On the other hand, Grand Viziers who read their job descriptions are likely to be defeated anyway. Even if you hate the ideals Ms. Rand presented, read the first few chapters of The Fountainhead to get a good idea of the craftiness behind Peter Keating's manipulations.

good question but I don't think it's in my nature to be a dictator, I'm far to laid back. :twisted:

Stop saying all this stuff about why you cannot do it, just think around it. Social domination is NOT the only way. How about going back in time with a flash camera and claim to steal people's souls with it. Think positive people! ideas!! !

Now if the w, x, y, and z axes are equivalent, all we have to do is rotate someone so that whichever axis points back is the w axis and vice versa. Then, a simple push will send the person aging forward or backward. As for the flash camera, that should not be much of a problem.

You can rule the world AND be libertarian. No one said you had to rule with an iron fist, although authoritarianism does allow for better stories. How much conflict can one get from a place where everything is already perfect (unless u [sic] want u-topia)?

Totally original idea!

Get a magic remote control that lets me enter the television, and go to the history channel. I then report a change of events that lead to myself becoming the evil dictator of the world. No one can question the history channel.

The end.

I agree with those who posted before me with the idea of leaving it up to the likes of Pinky and the Brain (one of my fav cartoons).

I myself couldn't have a more opposing view on the topic. Who am I to put my view on anyone else? We all live on this planet. But in the same instants... who is anyone to put their views on me?

If I ruled the world I make spinning round and round and round and round compulsory.

I do not know much about this subject, but on a related note, would you probably exclude the Golden Throne part?

No I would not want to rule the world.....especially as an evil dictator, I think it would be better to have a classless society then a dictatorship then everyone can contribute in a positive way. I know ridiculous, where's all the evil plans, death and gore?

Golden Throne? huh?

I wouldn't really have a "throne". I'd merge my consciousness with a great computer and command my machine armies from cyberspace.

Why not literally become a God Emperor instead? Surely the technology required to build a computer capable of simulating consciousness can also compute the steps required for something like this.
