Reply to comment by New-Shop-7539 in The world should be governed by people with intellectual thought and people should listen by New-Shop-7539

You should look for writings or books about Utopia by Plato the ancient greek philosopher , might interest your desires to bring about the fourth Reich.

I can give two easy reasons why your idea will never work.

The people smart enough to rule are smart enough to not want to be involved in politics.

You cannot underestimate just how different some people's goals, beliefs and motivations are. Without becoming increasingly facist you cannot force peoples opinions and beliefs, because who decides what is right?

Scientists know the limitations of of the scientific method, it doesn't cover ethics. That's a seperate subject. .

People smart enough wouldn't want to be enveloped in the shit show that is governing the people?

That makes sense.

I don't feel smart enough to do it but I feel its my life duty to try bring people together. I'd rather work a day job but my mind is set.

All humans only have a short time here on earth and we have the capability to globally work together.

I'm not sure how that would happen but it will.

It's not as glorious but I highly highly recommend trying to volunteer or help your local community first , before trying to achieve global peace. If you cannot help those around you , what makes you think you can help those far away, who live in different cultures.

I'll assume you are a young person who has great ambitions and that's fucking awesome we need people like you to change the world.

The problem is we need millions of people like you , in every community around the world.

But you also need to take a bit of a reality check.

Not everyone wants help.

And you are just a single person wanting to take on a task that requires millions, even billions of people to actively work towards.

Start small , in your family even, then see what you can do in your neighbourhood, your community, your city.
