Many a young and promising dictator made this fault to ignore the potential of a fool. Or at least the potential of many fools. Those smart guys only make a lot of trouble and are good for nothing if it comes to flying planes into buildings.
Simple obedience still is the pilar of a good conspiracy.

Only a very substantial fool would think he could achieve world supremacy. Let alone maintain world supremacy. What does this mean, anyway?

Now what is your strategy for getting people to become loyal and obeying, my lord?

No way. I obey no-one! You shall submit to me, fool! I am your master!! !

*launches many airships and fighters to bomb your fortresses to oblivion*

As for those who submitted, hah! Where is your lord now?

I don't think it's possible to conquer the world with violence. Ever.

You can conquer nations. World domination is possible with sufficient force and military supremacy. Not to mention the support for such force. The more efficient weapons, the better.

I think it is impossible. Even if the Nazis had won the war and marched across the face of the earth, sooner or later their regime would have collapsed under its own weight. Besides, no one really needs to rule the world anyhow. It's all to serve the ballooning ego.

You know, most companies I've worked for seem to prefer fools. I thought like repelled like. :wink:

Sir, your ambitions are out of order. I implore you to halt this operation, lest I form a Rebel's Alliance. :twisted:
