The best argument against democracy, a republic, or any kind of political government running the lives of the people, is ... people.
If people aren't smart enough to run their own lives, how can anyone be smart enough to run the lives of everyone else?
They can't be. It's a bad idea; so bad, I consider it stupid.
I believe part of this evil Ruler attitude is because if you screw up your own life, it hurts. If you screw up the lives of everyone else, and you are a monster, what's it to you? It's fine, as long as you still have the power, position, and money that goes along with running other people's lives. And ruining other people's lives.
It seems bizarre to me when other people act shocked that the Rulers behave evilly. What do they expect?
It's much better to let people rule themselves and limit the damage they do in this way.
Just remember- there's no such thing as a "right" to govern others. Doing what you have no right to do is committing a crime. Governing others is a crime against humanity, and it needs to be treated as such.
Tips are nice.
