Sometimes I feel disgusted by the people on the streets. Sometimes, I feel compassion for them. Why? Why do they choose to exist like zombies? Why don’t they feel betrayed by the universities and the media? There is one cheap and quick, though not easy, way to stop Putin: buy him, corrupt him. Vladimir Putin is a fascist dictator, but he is not as moral fascist dictator as Adolf Hitler was: Putin has no ideals, no principles, and no beliefs. Putin has no dignity. Putin just got very tired from ruling the contemporary Russian empire, but he fears losing his life, money, and comfort. Of course, it’s uneasy to deal with sociopaths. But it is certainly possible to convince Putin to destroy the Russian nuclear weapons in exchange for security, prosperity, and comfort for him and his comrades. Most of the Russian establishment just wants to be billionaires on vacation; they don’t need any Russian state. Yes, it’s not easy to convince a sociopath like Vladimir Putin to destroy his nuclear weapons. But it’s far better than to suffer from a nuclear war.
VILLAIN'S REWARD
ОтветитьУдалитьModern medical technologies, combined with neural networks and powerful drugs, are capable of providing an individual with decades of an uninterrupted sequence of ever-greater pleasures—effectively placing a person in "paradise" for tens of years.
Suppose there exists a powerful group of international criminals—such as an authoritarian regime with nuclear weapons. A swift victory over them is either impossible or would result in the deaths of a great many people. How can these hardened criminals be convinced to destroy their source of income and relinquish power?
Only by offering them the opportunity to lead a more enjoyable life. In other words, by offering them years, even decades, of a narcotic virtual paradise.
Who knows—perhaps this could be the only way to save humanity from destruction? Since current laws strictly prohibit such deals, a radical reform of international law is necessary.
