Dr. Evil & Control of the World
For purposes of ease, I will call myself Dr. Evil.
My purpose & aim in life is power, wealth & control. Along with a few selected friends who have similar ambitions/objectives as myself, we have come up with a plan to ensure our success. Our evil empire measures our success rate by how much we own, how much authority & influence we have in the world at large, as well as the ‘soft power’ we can muster through all areas of life.
We, as an organization seek nothing more than global domination by whatever means.
Our evil plan is so effective to date, so few even question it. There is a good reason for the lack of questioning, as we have conspired to create ‘mini me’. Replicas of ourselves, mini me’s help perpetuate our own sense of morality, greed, corruption, selfish & ruthless behaviour. This is like an insuarance policy as such, because the promoted social norm, is in fact, an image of ourselves.
What is considered to be moral, just & fair within a so called modern society, is an expectation for the masses to live up to the ideals which we have manufactured. Duplicated at every level, through all possible avenues, helps to ingrain this conditioning, which our evil conspiring group have implemented in the first place.
We are well aware of the potential growth that every human has. Because we are self orientated, self serving & wish to keep our position, there are certain things which need to be secured.
1) Physiological Needs - not everyone will have access to basic needs such as food & water. In fact, hungry people will usually work for less, so having an abundance of hungry people helps keep our labour costs very low. They will also be more appreciative, subordinate & remain fearful of their employer for they have known the reality of a constantly rumbling stomach from lack of nutrition. So ultimately this tactic of deprivation is beneficial to the building of our evil empire.
Take as much as you can away, then piecemeal it back to them & they will thank you for it.
2) Safety Needs - War is profitable. Not only does our organization own the rights to manufacture weapons, we also have a license to sell them. We will have arms fairs, sell off our outdated weapons to other countries, start wars, internal conflicts & make sure peace is not sustained for too long anywhere. Peace means we are losing money. Not only are we the arms dealer we are also an official world peace keeping force which is supposed to assure people’s saftey & security.
So it is in fact moral to go to war over just about anything really, as it means a steady cash flow.
Our banking friends will make sure that fluctuating markets in house prices, investments, shares, savings & any area of the financial sector is volitile & when there are market crashes, we will buy up low & sell high.
Making people insecure in their homes, finances & their employment, will be a sure way to exploit even more money from the masses.
Without money people cannot buy resources, which is a good thing really, as our organization wants all the world’s resources.
3) Love/Belonging Needs - creating mini me’s throughout these 3 ‘gates’ or levels will mean that the social norms are regurgtiated via conversation with friends & loved ones. Conditioning to an acceptable morality (which we designed in the first place) is passed down to the children, almost like an automated machine. To fit in to society means to be the same as us. If you are ruthless, cold hearted, selfish & greedy - that is good, you deserve a slap on the back. If you are otherwise, you need to fit in or harden up. You need to be heartless.
4) Esteem Needs - what is deemed in high esteem is the moral code of gates 1,2,3.
Mini me’s gain confidence by being a relica of Dr. Evil. If you earn 6 figures or more then that is to be naturally appreciated by others, you are a model citizen. You drive a rolls royce, have a large house, perhaps are seen on tv, talked about in the media on a regular basis & are someone the children and other people can look up to.
It does not matter so much of how you obtained your money, you could be an arms dealer, a figure who incites war & killing of innocent people. It might be that you are a ruthless dictator in a third world country who is psychotic & insane. But that is fine as long as you can keep some sort of order for awhile, until those who have the real power decide you are no longer fit for the job.
Then, you’ll likely be revealed for the monster that you are.
But Dr. Frankenstein / Dr. Evil will undoubtably remain hidden, the guy who put you in that position in the first place.
=================================================
*** The above is of course the complete opposite of what Maslow had in mind.
In Maslow’s view this Heirarchy of Needs highlights some of the common needs which we ALL share as humans.
Perhaps another time we will look at the self actualization (level 5), as it is a complex & intricate peek at the higher functioning areas of the psyche.
But of course in order to reach that level, all the other 4 levels must be in place first.
Which means the enormous sensitivity & inherent intelligence of humans requires certain basic needs to be in place before they can reach their full potential.
Our growth is dependant upon those needs.
How much those needs are being exploited by the likes of Dr. Evil & his organization is arguable.
When you turn the news on the next time, try to look through this ‘Maslow lens’ & see if there is any validity in it whatsoever.

Yes it's LONG! close to 3 hour vid. Interesting though and I intend to watch. I agree with the above sentiment, thanks Nikprit for launching this thread.
Here in the states there is a certain candidate (whom I am not endorsing by quoting) that is using "the system is broken" as one leg of his platform. Without talking politics I will say it is interesting to hear the 'mirror image' problems all around the globe.
