Power is mongered by incompetents who find that they are losers where rationality exists and resort to force to prevail against other persons, which means domination. Domination is the basis of all corruption, since nothing constructive can be accomplished while being dominated by incompetent corrupters.

Power mongers fight a war against rationality, because it exposes them as the incompetent corrupters that they are; and rationality produces truth which is the only force corrupters cannot defeat. They can temporarily defy truth, but truth increases when they do.

Rationality is alignment upon the objective realities of the universe that define life and solution to problems. Corrupters disconnect from objective reality in their focus upon themselves trying to be winners through force.

Power mongers take over social structures and convert them into power structures for their personal gain at everyone else's expense. The social structures must already exist. That means taking them over is an exploitation process, not a constructive process. It also means the purposes of social structures changes from solving social problems to personal gain by incompetent corrupters.

Incompetent corrupters assume everyone is trying to be a winner and power is needed to be a winner.

On that basis, power is assumed to be the highest achievement. But what is achieved? Just personal gain; not anything anyone else benefits from.

Power mongers view constructivity which benefits everyone as foolishness which doesn't get people where they want to be in acquiring power. They don't know that rational and constructive persons have no desire to monger power.

That means the basic error of corrupters is the assumption that everyone should be striving for power. That error causes them to assume that constructivity is for fools. Being opposed to constructivity, power mongers are destroyers.

Reaganites reconstructed the purpose of existence in that manner, which they called "a new normal." To make winners out of incompetent corrupters, they reduced government to nonfunctionality through so-called deregulation, which cleared the path for power mongers to take over the social structures and convert them into power structures.

Getting there over the past forty years put Trump in power as totally unqualified and using government for his personal gain only.

Reagan said, if you have to explain, you are already a loser. That means he assumed everyone is trying to be a winner (a power monger) and rationality, which requires explanation of claims, is for losers.

With no concept of what constructivity is or why anyone would want to be constructive, power mongering corrupters assume that power is the source truth, knowledge and virtue. They look for consensus to determine what truth is. Bigotry is the assumption that power is virtue and powerlessness is corruption.

To create a power structure, subservience to power mongers is required. A need is created for climbing a vertical power structure by building up a few persons at the top and destroying vulnerable persons at the bottom. Alignment upon a vertical power structure requires positivism to replace criticism.

The largest part of mongering power is lying to glamorize incompetent corrupters who can't add and subtract. With rationality, the persons disappear; with power mongering, the persons are the central focus.

Power mongers assume that concealing is a higher standard than explaining. "Just trust us" is the only explaining power mongers do. The first problem is that concealment prevents anyone else from getting involved in the process. How much good can power mongers do by themselves with no one else getting involved? They couldn't chew food without others getting involved. They can lie about it, because they don't accomplish anything; they just monger power for their own selfishness, not for the good of society.

To do anything for the good of society requires explanations which allow everyone else to get involved in the processes. No explanations, no constructivity.

The word power does not have clear boundaries around its meaning. It takes some form of power to lift an object. So the subject here is mongered power. That means the power is synthesized for the purpose of humans prevailing over other persons. It's a social form of power.

That type of power is in conflict with the universe, because it is artificially created in conflict with surrounding realities. That means rationality must be destroyed to produce and use that type of power. So the persons who monger that type of power are fighting a war against the rationality that destroys that type of power.

Corrupters are control freaks. That means eradicating rationality, because rationality is allowing the laws of the universe to do the controlling. The universe needs to be disconnected from everything before subjective and arbitrary control can occur. Without the universe, whim is the only standard that exists.

Corrupters assume corruption is the secret to success, because it takes corruption to monger power and power is the test of everything. Their hate for more rational persons is due to the insistence upon objective reality as the answer to problems instead of defiant corruption as the answer.
