why do positions of power always attract narcissists, machiavellians and psychopaths?

because they're megalomaniacs, dumb ass.

>why do evil subhumans seek power over others?
Because humanity hasn't culled them on a mass scale yet.

Real mystery, that. Call the Hardy Boys.

>be desperate for power
>find positions of power
I think we need just more trials by combat.
>>
>>533853647
Positions of power were invented by narcissists, machiavellians, and psychopaths, and so are most naturally occupied by them.

>>533853647
That guy machiavelli he some parasite of the worst order.
>>
>>533853647
Because the sane and moral people in society REFUSE TO TAKE RESPONSIBILITY AND DO THEIR FUCKING JOB

>>533853647
Its two sided. Those positions attract that type of person, and that type of person does well in those positions.
Adopt the mindset. Keep your morals. Be a civilized monster the way god intended

>>533853647
Why do people think powerful people are narcissists, and Machiavellian/psychopathic?
>>
>>533853647
>why do positions of power attract people who are always looking for power?
Are all Americans retarded, or just the ones on this site?

>because they're megalomaniacs

That is a shit explanation model. You are not asking that, you are asking why the promise of power attracts incompetent morons. And what to do about it (probably sustained and relatively precision orbital bombardment ... the dead cannot be stupid after all).

Seriously dude, buy an ad.

There's also the fact that being a leader requires making very hard decisions (for a normal, moral person).
If you're in charge of the US then you have to make decisions that will get people killed. You'll be given choices where doing nothing will also get people killed as much as doing something. You'll be given decisions where if you mess up you're responsible for making millions of people's lives worse.

That's not an easy thing for a moral person to deal with. The pretense of morality often breaks down when you're dealing with geopolitics. You end up justifying things in the same way a gangster justifies their actions.
It's easier to make decisions like that if you're amoral.

This is might be why a lot of good US presidents had past military experience.

You got it right, I am kind of a cat. :3

Best not be a fat one, that one's kinda looking the part >:(

It’s easy for them in this climate.
They wouldn’t even think of wielding power if it was dangerous and they had to fight for it.
Look at them, they’re out of shape, weak, dishonest.
>>
>>533853647
Because truth becomes harder and harder to find, the more agenda there is. This benefits people who aren't as honest.

Political Ponerology: A Science on the Nature of Evil Adjusted for Political Purposes
Andrew M. Lobaczewski
>>
>>533853647
So-called "government" does not do evil things. (Because "government" does not exist. It is a dangerous delusion and a legal fiction.) Evil people in silly costumes do evil things while masquerading as government. (It really is this simple.)

Good people do not become government employees.

Because sociopaths, narcissists, and overall shitty people have a will to power. Good people just want to be left alone. Look at the left and how they will riot and DO shit while rightoids are afraid of conflict and are passive.
