perhaps men are too emotionally erratic to have in positions of power
@lety men are too emotional, if you ask me

@lety

Anyone who covets power should be deemed unsafe with it.

@Anomnomnomaly @lety This is such a correct statement.

I mean I already know if ever I was given any sort of power it would be a dreadful idea so I should never be given any. ๐Ÿ˜‚

@lety Perhaps? That seems a very generous interpretation of the world :(

@lety

Maybe we should move past taxing the rich USA techbros and oil executives to imprisoning them and nationalizing all their assets for crimes against humanity

@lety
perhaps humans are too emotionally erratic to have in positions of power

@django This is why democracy demands sharing of power. It is very wrong to have too much power in too few hands. Just like it is very wrong to have too much wealth in too few hands. @lety

@lety

Old, rotten, crooked, psychopath men especially.

@meadow @lety I feel like it depends on the man and age also matters too. I feel like I'd support an amendment making the age limit 75 for president.
@lety Iโ€™m fully here for a moratorium
@lety Maybe not every man... but a whole lot nonetheless 
@lety perhaps we shouldn't let a single person have so much power
@lety you accidentally added a "perhaps" to the beginning of your post
@lety Margaret Thatcher has entered the chat
@lety Perhaps it is said โ€œpositions of powerโ€ that are problematic
@lety As a man, I can confirm that yes, we are too emotionally erratic.

@lety Peter Parker's uncle had a pretty pie-in-the-sky view of the world. But

With great power comes corruption.

@lety

โ€œ, trust, and/or responsibility.โ€

@lety NO WE AREN'T! Damn I see what you just did.
@lety Men have been pretty much proving that point now for centuries. Millenia?
