D&D General The Tyranny of Rarity

[Vaalingrade]

If you'd seized control in an authoritarian fashion you would have been better served then. I'm glad we agree on something.

It's wild seeing this kind of talk out in the wild even just concerning teenagers hurling eggs into the school parking lot for grades.

The lack of authoritarians for one.

He said objectively better. This is an opinion.

...am I wrong? If you'd done that then you'd have gotten your A and achieved your objective. But instead you allowed yourself to be controlled by a weak and ineffectual leader.

'Coup' is not a solution to a school project.

Except it is and was. What you mean to say is that you do not think it was an acceptable solution.

Me? If I have a problem, I just want to solve it. I'm not really going to sweat the details as long as my objective is achieved.

Okay.

That's horrifying and I do not want to end up in front of you in traffic.

That is precisely the flaw in your reasoning. You are given excessive weight to the “authoritarian leader” that knew what he was doing, while dismissing the “authoritarian leader” that was an idiot.
