How would you take over the world?

[brodyhyde]

How do you think the world can be taken over? How would you do it? Start at any point you like. Unlimited Resources or none at all.

Force everyone to watch "Fool's Gold" until one half of the world commits suicide and the other begs for mercy.

Jokes aside, that's a pretty sick question, sir, I might have to report you to homeland security....after I get my copy of Fool's Gold and a favor from a friend who controls the jumbotron at the St. Pete Times Forum

Probably the way Hitler tried.
And he is the only one that actually came very close in succeeding.

Get control of the nation.
Get the international world to like you.
Get strong allies and build up a massive army.
Commit 911 like attacks on your own soil.
Invade countries.

Repeat until satisfied.

You got it down to a T Lycanox.

However it's ironically your last point [Repeat until satisfied] that will never happen

[Fut004]

The Hitler Approach is a good one.
He would have done a much better job, but Pride got in his way. He took it personal when he couldn't take over Britain. It clouded his judgment, and he started to make mistakes. Once he was in there Bombing the Fuck out of London, he was doing good again. But then he backed off. Had he continued with the Bombings, he would have taken the island eventually (with a tonne of losses of course). If he had done that who knows where we'd be today.

Taking over the World through shear Force. It's the only real way.

You guys will see when my Plan gets going..... Shit, I said too much.

[lycanox]

He could have easily taken over Britain if he wanted..
The island would be nearly defenseless during a ground invasion.
However. Deep inside he still believed England was going too defect to his cause anyway.
Whish was the first mayor mistake.

His second mistake was attacking Russia head on instead of through its back belly.
If he went to moscow through the middle east instead of Poland. He could have cutter Russia oil supplies; meet up with the Japanese in the east and conquer Asia.

This would have shifted the resources advantage severely to the Nazis.
With the resources of nearly half a planet to put in their Wunderwaffen or vergeltungswaffen programs and war plans They could simply do whatever they pleased on the planet.

I'd use intensive religious psy-ops based on the fear of a vengeful and angry God to take over the world.
I'd make sure to include questioning this God as a sin punishable by spending an eternity in a hot and burning Hell; and also, I'd be certain to use mass propaganda to cause people to fear as "Satanic" any efforts to reveal my plans of world domination.

(History has shown these methods to be effective...)


ps
I'd have to add a weekly "collection plate" and make sure written in the religious laws is an order to give the "church", a portion of your hard earned money- you know, for God. God needs money to help you defeat the Devil!

[brodyhyde]

What if some sick but very intelligent person took over a company like Blackwater. This is a very big, private army who we give no bid contracts to and who must be privy to certain sensative information about our military.

I think I would maybe start off by getting control of or building up (if i had the resources) such private army and then start the propoganda going.

The question is, would domestic terrorism be neccesary in order to really get the public to believe that they would be better off in your hands? That they should get in on the revolution.

Look at Ron Paul, he barely made a dent he we was telling everyone the truth. The truth doesn't seem to work so well. After taking over the White house, I would immediately hold a new election, which i would rig of course. Now the whole question of Fascism or totalitarianism is gone.

911? the beginning of the new world Order under?

Get the entire planet dependent upon a limited resource, backed by a single currency which you control. Sit back and wait a few decades as the entire supply chain grows to rely upon an abundant, cheap supply of this resource. As production of the resource is about to decline and its costs start to increase at an exponential rate, systematically destroy that currency by printing more of it, against the will of global markets. At the same time, start destroying the planet's feedstock by using it for something other than food. Switch to a new currency and default on your nation's debts, leaving every other nation on Earth with worthless notes. Make the rest of the planet starve to death, so that your nation is the only one left standing.

[Harry61]

Who would really want to? I mean if we are all such a mess who would want us? Would you want an old broken down car? Go out of your way to steal it? Nope.


Paranoia would probably do it though. Get enough people to believe you know all the answers to the worlds problems and they will follow you anywhere.

For example, oil is almost gone, ozone is almost gone, water bad, diseases gone wild. Who would want it? Only the ones who think they can fix it. Or throw enough propaganda to convience everyone else they can.

Perfect Nu Kua! History has shown that this is the most effective way to control the masses. Threaten a voyage to hell if you question God. God is always right and has good reason for everything - even twisted, sick things but God loves you and he needs money now.

Great plan...
unfortunately.

Sorry, rest of the world. :-(

The best way to take over the world is through dropping subtle ideas into the populace from the top down.

This has happened, although probably naturally, through little drops of liberal idealogy throughout the last few hundred years. John Lock, Stewart Mill, etc began talking about these ideas of mankind being born in a state of nature, with inalienble rights, etc.

Next thing you know, some wealthy noblemen rebelled against their superiors. Then, white men with property rebelled, taking the ideals a bit further. Then poor white men. Then woman and racial minorities rebelled, taking the ideals a bit further. And this trend will continue, until the ballance of power has completely shifted.



Of course, that's probably not what you meant, but changing the world's paradigm, in my humble opinion, counts as taking over the world.




The other way to do it is through religion.

[Jake99]

The only way possible to take over the world is by doing what the messiah is prophecised to do starting as a child and then revealing yourself and the works in your wake when the end times come. That was my plan when I was 11 and I already had an 11 year head start behind me from when I was not sure why I was so gifted. It is in life and in court that the leadership of the planet is earned by way of miraculous good works and performed prophecies.

300 miracles or prophecies was the goal while standing in the path against all others, and I am sure I topped that mark by a great deal. Any idea how difficult that task would be and what the mathmatical odds are of one man doing such a thing?

I hear that performing just 8 miracles and or prophecies is 1 in 10,000,000,000 so how believable as the true messiah is someone who performed 300? Being strange and unusual is what also makes me the only one the bible speaks of. I am not like any politician, business or religious leader that has ever spoken. They say they know me but I never knew them so how could that be so.

My elementary through high school school teachers had many questions about my extreme talents and unusually high intelligence. The games of chess and athletics I played were well above the normal from other children.

Its an instant leadership and government change based on faith in one worldly leader that unifies and saves the world and that is my job here on earth.

Jake99, are you for real? Do you really think your the antichrist?

He runs a bakery and is one of the resident "prophets". I believe he also claims the Marine Corps wanted him to lead them.

Jake is one of many. They are attempting to save the world from the comfort of their own living rooms - keyboard comando if you will. We all see how well this is working for them.

[brodyhyde]

LOL. I see. You guys are a trip.

GW Bush is the antichrist I am the direct opposite of him and man's way's of governing the planet. I would be happy to prove that to be fact by the works in my wake Vs the works in his wake.

I say GW Bush is the absolute furthest from godliness that has walked the earth in the history of time and that is saying something considering the Hitlers of the past that I judge him to be a billion times worse than. Millions of people have followed him over the last seven years and the rest of the politicians were grown from the same tree of rotten fruit in the same colleges of chaos.

When mankind compares my works to those of GW they will be asked to choose between good and evil at the very ends of the spectrum. That is how the messiah takes over control of the wolrd and then all mankind will live happily ever after.

GW will get a hypothetical knucle sandwich and then he too will understand and be a good man ever after.

Very well said!

[olddragon]

Jake, it is time for you to do some thing.
The world is getting worse, soon we may all be gone.

Thank you Nu Kua I always meant to say that but was unsure if anyone could really understand how dangerous and destructive GW Bush has been in his lifetime.

All I need are a few people who will look at my works, words and ways and promote me as the world leader that the bible promises will come and demonstrate the truth and the way. Its actually pretty easy I already did all the work that proves I am the Messiah so you just have to lift the veil and see me as the only begotten son of god.

I would guess that once the word was out that I have been proven to be the one that it would all be over in a day and the era of everlasting peace and prosperity would begin.

[MirceaIulian]

Government in itself is evil
i would inspire the people to rise up
the next age should be one where humanity is self governed
no borders or nations
no coorporations or anything
just small socialist comunes all over
living in peace with eachother and the world

[lycanox]

But that would mean that you didnt take over the world. You just devided the world over even more people.

Anyway, How about the technique used in the web comic Post Nuke.
Set the leaders of the world up against each other. Wait until they finally nuke the world and then come out of your shelter with lots of aid for the survivors.
wish you will recruit in your army to take out the remaining people that don't want you as their savior.

[MirceaIulian]

yes it might defeat the purpose of the thread.
but to take over the world or a country any person that would acoomplish this goal would become power hungry corupt paranoid and insane due to it.
that is why governments dont work, people become obsessed with securing their money and wealth.
