Views from around the universe

The strongman is he who surrounds himself with weaklings.

Though there is a great argument about whether it is true that the strongman surrounds himself with weaklings.

Some say, the strongman is always weaker than his followers. Which is in line with the old story where some schemers put a weak king on the throne in order to manipulate him.

Some ask why these people bother with a king at all. To which most thinkers role their eyes and say: it’s for the show of things. For the story. The story that some humans are meant to be kings. Which is, of course, nonsense. It’s just a story. But it’s a story that works well on humans, even after centuries of evidence that kings and queens tend to be rather useless at best, and murderous idiots at worst.

There is the other group of thinkers who argue, that no, while the strongman is weak by nature, he is in fact so weak that he can’t abide anyone in his proximity who shows any sign of strength. Which is why the strongman always makes sure to surround himself with weaker people.

Nevertheless. The people surrounding, supporting and enabling strongmen are one of the big and very popular mysteries in the universe. And even though the universe has been studying planet Earth for decades, it still can’t quite make out why anyone would bring a strongman to power and even keep him/her in power. Strongmen never achieve anything useful. All they do is brag, whine, decry. And they plunder their nation, and build big armies to bully and plunder other nations, too.

Some of the most ingenious thinkers point out that, alas, the human race still hasn’t discovered their own strength. ‘They always think ill of themselves. They even invent machines to prove just how insufficient they are, and they demonstrate that even great arts can be copied by a machine. (Insert a large crowd of shaking heads.)

It is our believe that if humans learned to appreciate themselves, they wouldn’t be in all this trouble.

Some ask, ‘But how does this theory fit in with our observation of deeply ingrained superiority complexes in humans?’
‘It’s the same thing. A need for superiority only arises in the weak. The weak find their strength by belittling others.’

If the human found their balance, they wouldn’t need to be superior.

strongman = he who represses free thought, free expression of thought, free flow of information

strongman = he who loves to invent truth

strongman = he who shouts the loudest and has the least to say

strongman = person plus group of minions who lack imagination, which inevitably leads to destruction because neither a strongman nor their minions have the imagination to create anything living, breathing, healthy, progressive or enjoyable. In fact they are too frightened to lose power to do anything useful.

strongman = A person who has suffered loss, poverty and other maladies, and who has to prove to the universe just how underappreciated they are.  On planet earth, this often results in acts of violence since humans tend to ignore such claims, being too busy with their own self-pity.
This means, the strongman needs to pick a quarrel to get the attention they require.  In the worst case, a strongman surrounds him-/ or herself with other hurt creatures, and together they start to bite at everyone who doesn’t follow their ideas or who has been identified as a source of under-appreciation.

strongman = he who knows how things should be. he who promises to make everything right. he who believes he is the only person who sees. he who does not shy from using weapons to enforce his truth.

strongman = disease that only knows pompous bragging, bullying, destruction and nepotism

strongman = bully

strongman = someone who tends to be stuck in the past, we hear. By all accounts, we are lucky never to have encountered such a strange person. Who doesn’t love to explore what might be undiscovered, what might be possible, what might be worthwhile changing, rethinking, rearranging? The joy of creation seems foreign to such persons. What unimaginable sadness these people must carry in their souls.

strongman, a term which usually encompasses women and other people, and which describes a person who uses external means, such as weapons, to portrait themselves as strong. This often goes along with a packet of simplified and simplistic answers to the real worries of the voters.
A word on female humans. It is a mistake often made by humans to assume that only men can be cruel cowards. In fact, many cruel men are made possible by their wives and mothers.
And given or taken a chance, a female being is as capable of slaughter and idiocy as a male being.

strongman. you can easily recognise a strongman by the enormous military surrounding this creature.
It has always puzzled us why humans mistake fire power for strength, or technological advantage for superiority when we all know that no strong person requires either.

strongman = short-sighted idiot, idiot, long-sighted idiot, idiot in every possible way and direction, and a coward

A strongman never builds, they always destroy, or at best they let everything crumble except their golden palace.

strongman = person who likes to cherry-pick the bible, or another religious text of their choice, to base their own silly ideas on, and to justify their actions.
To anyone who encounters this kind of strongman, we advice a closer look at the religious text in question. Usually it is quite easy to debunk the cherry-picked truths. In most cases all you need to do is read a few verses before and after the TRUTH.

strongman = destroyer

strongman = someone who is devoid of every kind of imagination

strongman = a being that pretends to be strong. No strong person has the need to call themselves or to be called strong.

strongman = a scared bully

strongman = a manipulator
Many look down on the strongman and other ingenious manipulators especially those you find in human advertising. But we are grateful for the examples humankind have given us. This way we were able to learn to think for ourselves. Today we can burst out laughing when someone tries their hand on manipulation. We owe this great advance in our development to the human kind, and we don’t mind admitting it.

strongman = a whining creature that doesn’t care for what it calls its people. Often the creature doesn’t know love or care.

strongman = delusional. We used to assume that a strongman is a person. But we have discovered that it is in fact a state of mind which can only be described as delusional. It is a very sad sight. Unfortunately it is a state of mind that can lead to enormous cruelty and devastation.
