What disliked current, recent or historic / ancient evil regime/s
(whatever your own serious or humorous religious or philosophical
definitions of that is) in our real world, from history, or from
fiction, would you most like to topple or have toppled and please
elaborate on how would you
(or previously would've) seriously or humorously successfully go about

Any disliked evil regime in your view, doesn't have to only be
historic, political or military related,
but can also be either religious institution - spiritually related,
broadcast - media related, science or technologically related, or
business - economic related.

European New World exploitation ventures.
How? The native kings of Hispaniola attack
Columbus and his first voyage crew before
they can leave Hispaniola, and none of them
ever returns to Europe.
This event delays European exploration of
the New World for nearly a century as the
European trading companies concentrate entirely
on profitable routes to places they know exist.
During that time, the New World natives on
Hispaniola and the evirons figure out large vessel
sailing and this technology becomes the basis for
a widespread trading network that spans the
Carribean and spreads along the Atlantic coasts
of both North and South Azteca -- more importantly
it leads to the spread of information about the fate
of Columbus on Hispaniola. By the time the Europeans
show up again, none of the states in the
Aztec Confederation have reason to imagine
that they might be dealing with deities,
and as they either outnumber European landing
parties wherever they land or have the means
to travel to engage them wherever they land,
the Europeans fail to gain the foothold needed
to loot the New World at will, and in short order,
lose the will to even try.

Socialist / fascist / communist / tribalist / godist / environmentalist
inspired governments, all sacrificing man, the human individual, as the
means to their evil end, rather than allowing man to be the end in
himself.

The root of all evil is govt.
Wrong, and is in fact a typical mindless regurgitiation of exactly how
evil comes about, i.e. accepting an idea without evidence, without
linking an idea directly to evidential sensory reality.
Its called acting irrationally, regurgitating irrational nonsense.
Fact, evil is a concept that can only be known by man, evil exists as a
result of man (the human individual's) irrational ideas and actions,
(the resulting physical behaviour of his ideas) of human individuals,
because only human individuals exist as entities capable of thinking
and doing evil.
Fact, the rationally acting man, can only be called a rationally acting
man if, that same man is also capable of acting irrationally.
What does *to be rational* mean?
In a nut shell, to be rational means, *to be practical*.
In order for man's (the human individual because only human individuals
exist) ideas to be rational they have to be practical, they have to
work in practice.
An irrational idea is therefore a contradiction of that which works in
practice.
A government's forever increasing total amount of legalized theft (tax)
bought about by bogus BS nonsensical new regulations licenses permits
etal, and on a daily basis etc etc, is an example of something not
working in practice, therefore IS irrational.
So what works in practice? Simple, **reality** / existence e.g. trees
and of course MAN when left alone has NO CHOICE but to act practically,
rationally if he is to survive.
Whether man is here or not, the reality of nature worked before man got
here, and will continue to work when he's gone, and the reality of
nature works without contradiction, it has to, e.g. trees can only
exist if there is NOTHING to contradict their existence, e.g. drought
or disease.
Contradictions of any and all things, means automatic destruction of
those things.
Fact, government is institutionalized by man, human individuals,
because only human individuals exist as entities capable of
institutionalizing governments.
Fact, man can not be called evil unless he can also be called good.
Fact, good governments are therefore possible.
So HOW does the human individual institutionalize a good government?
By looking for and eliminating contradictions between what gives his
own life a rational practical meaning and what he votes a government to
do.
e.g. hands up all of those who in their private lives resort to
stealing and bullying and threats of initiated physical violence, to
demand conformity to YOUR ideas and values?
So WHY the ***** do you leftist scumbags, vote for the government to
steal and do what you DONT do yourselves in your private lives?
Fucking hypocrites.

It is not the function of govr to "allow man to be the end in
himself".
Govt is the concentration of power in the hands of criminals. Govt is
an insult to human dignity. With or without govt, you would have good
people doing good things and evil people doing evil things. But for
good people to do evil things, that takes govt.
Govt is the root of all evil.

What makes govt evil if not man?
If you cant take any and all of your ideas right back down to an
irreducible and sensory level of perception then you've invented that
idea. e.g. god and the greater good and govt are the root of evil are
ALL such stupid of the mind nonsenses.

"With or without govt, you would have good people doing good things

The point is really quite simple:
"Power corrupts and absolute power corrupts absolutely".
Govt creates evil because it concentrates power.
You would be able to understand this if you studied the Milgram
Experiments.

Oh so its the guns and the hammers and the poison that make people evel
is it? FFS give me a break.
Govt is the root of all evil."
Is it? Oh, so in that case, man rapes woman at knife point can blame
government because the government's the root of all evil? You stupid
*****, honestly Bob, that would have to rate as some of the most stupid
crap I have ever read.
The point is really quite simple:
For unthinking mindless fucking retards maybe, no wonder there are
fucking gun laws and drug laws and liquor laws and poofter marrying
poofter banning laws and a zillion other fucking retarded stupid
leftist invented laws, which all come about soley because you dumb
arsed leftist unthinking anti-human *simple* cunts, blame inanimate
harmless *nouns* for the individual human's behaviour, you fucking
dopey goat, wake the ***** up idiot.
"Power corrupts and absolute power corrupts absolutely".
Oh so its the power a government has, that is the root of all evil now?
FFS make up your mind, WHERE does a governemnt get its power from, if
not from unthinking mindless moronic evil human individuals who want to
e.g. ban guns, and interfer in the lives of peaceful human beings, at
the voting booth?
Govt creates evil because it concentrates power.
What power, where does the power come from? Thin air? FFS
You would be able to understand this if you studied the Milgram
Experiments.
Oh so to understand your stupidity I should study an experiment where
individual human beings, were placed in a position of absolute power
and deliberately NOT told that they and they *alone* ARE TOTALLY
responsible for THEIR actions and that at all times, that they MUST
follow any and all instructions regardless of the consequences of those
instructions and regardless of THEIR OWN actions.
Now answer this, IF those people who took part, had been told that THEY
as human individuals, WILL be held TOTALLY and SOLELY responsible for
ANY and ALL harm that they cause another human being, would they have
continued to demand an increase in shock treatment?
If HONESTY and morality had been used in the first place and IF they
had been told what the experiment was about, would they have continued?
Read my lips Bob, the failure to recognise and eliminate CONTRADICTION
IS the sole requirement of any and ALL EVIL human behaviour.
Contradiction can ONLY happen in a human individual's thinking process.
e.g. YOU VOTING for ideas and actions, that YOU do NOT live by yourself
e.g. stealng.
IF there was ONE single behaviour of ANY government, that leads that
government to ALL other evil, it IS the authority that the human
individuals, it governs, have given it, to fucking well steal.

Bottom line of BOTH?
Peaceful human individuals being controlled against their will by bone
lazy layabouts, good for ***** all parasites.

himself, than straightforward and simple integrity in another.

The point is really quite simple:
"Power corrupts and absolute power corrupts absolutely".
Govt creates evil because it concentrates power.
Only if the government is composed of immoral people. Moral people
don't commit evil.

The only way to prevent govt from corrupting otherwise moral people -
or running them off (eg. Bob Dornan) - is to keep it small and local
so it is accountable. But most important, do not let lawyers become
part of it in any way. Once lawyers get ahold of something you are
guaranteed it will become corrupt in short order. And even then you
must practice tyrannicide when someone becomes corrupt.

That is not a quote I would bother highlighting nor to be proud of Bob,
in fact you ought be ashamed of it, its fucking stupid.
Irrational ideas, ideas containing contradiction ARE at the root of all
evil. I suggest you check some of yours Bob.

Moral people are moral. People who follow a particular moral code by
choice can be corrupted.
But most important, do not let lawyers become
part of it in any way. Once lawyers get ahold of something you are
guaranteed it will become corrupt in short order.
Without law a nation is run by men, which is even worse. With law
there's at least a pretense that the people in power have rules they
have to follow. Laws written by people who know nothing about law
soon become unenforceable.

"Imagine the people who believe such things and who are not ashamed
to ignore totally all the patient findings of thinking minds through all
the centuries since the Bible was written. And it is these ignorant
people, the most uneducated, the most unimaginative, the most unthinking
among us who would make themselves the guides and leaders of us all, who
would force their feeble and childish beliefs on us, who would invade
our schools and libraries and homes."
