There’s no way to use that power in a way that’s just though, because the power itself is unjust. Any use of that power necessarily goes against the concept of this being a nation of laws, where no person has absolute authority to enforce their will at the expense of others.

Of course, if you don’t truly believe in democracy as a concept, then the idea of using an immoral power in a “good” way seems fine.

If you don’t work by the same rules as others, they win. This is the real world, not a fairy tale.

Doing GOOD things is good. Period. It’s the same question as, “if you had a billion dollars”. If your answer is, “nothing because I did not earn that money”, you are nothing but a fool.

Then you don’t believe in democracy; you believe that fascism is fine as long as it’s your fascism.

End of story.

No, actually. In fact, working under the same set of rules is distinctly NOT fascist. At all. Period.

Fascism is rules for the out-group that are conveniently not applicable or simply not enforced on the in-group.

So, tell me. How does playing by the SAME rules equate to fascism? Your black & white thinking is quite sad.
