Jack C4, if you're not wearing one of those hats, you need to.
I don't know about you but I'm one megalomaniacal motherfucker. Everywhere I go I feel an innate need to influence other people, to have people know that I'm superior to them.
This doesn't seem to be as difficult as some would presume. You simply play to them, refuse them and sit back as they come chasing after you. They become addicted to your charismatic personality, the greatest means to do this is by portraying confidence-You don't have to be confident, you just have to pretend to be. That suffices.
They begin to see you as someone with direction, and as these people live only by the meaning that they're in a companionship with whatever cultural icons they adorn and align themselves with, they direct this need to be controlled towards me.
Then I'm free to do whatever I want, my reputation cannot be harmed-The reverence is too strong. I'm not a psychologist but I've read quite a bit on psychology. It really makes me think of the nature of the state, and Hobbes theory of social contract. That people naturally submit themselves to a state, and as Aristotle said in 'The politics' these people can achieve nothing of developmental importance
:On to Marx: without entering an interdependent relationship with the whole-In which production is in constant motion, heading into a direction determined by the nature of the economic system.
It's almost as if they require this interdependency in order to become something. This is always what I've known: That life, having proven to be without objective purpose universally, they indulge in the biological preferentialist constructs. That is, they try to numb silent emptiness by pursuing some social life, religion or drugs- It all works the same way.
