What is True Power? Is it the ability to claim yourself a victim, while being able to manipulate any result you want without question?

I think often times power is hidden in perceived weakness.
It is the ability to artificially create problems and smash any dissent while still playing the position of the underdog.
We see this throughout history, where many Tyrants were able to rise simply by playing of the sympathies (and insecurities) of others. Often times they used "Us vs Them" type mentalities to make their side appear weak and righteously deserving of giving retribution for some previous perceived crime.

What is Power, if it's not the ability to hold what is perceived as a "moral" high ground, while manipulating forces to your cause? Regardless, if it's based on truth or not?

Wow…very well thought out. Can you take a person in History and make your Design fit?

Well, think of Hitler...
His rise of power was playing on the insecurities of a people that were suffering.
So, in his case it was of course the German people.
They suffered not due to their own choices, but because of the actions of others (like the Jews).
So by playing the Germans off as being the victims of mistreatment, he was able to rise to popularity and power. He then used this group of people and artificially created problems (like the Jews leading to the German defeat in World War 1), as a way to persecute other groups and create a very clear supremacist attitude.

There are of course MANY other examples.
Even modern examples that include political or social movements.
Often times they play off the sympathies of others to create political/social power.

Take for example the BLM.
Even me saying that likely made your stomach churn.
Because we recognize to even question the organization lands you into a position of being outed as "bigot"
Yet it is an organization that is celebrated by many political leaders, has influences in corporations, and thrives within the media circles.
To even question its validity, even if many of its follower don't truly understand what it even means
is to immediately fall into the category of the "other" that is an enemy of what is a perceived "righteous" direction.
This is even asking questions of it.
Be it of its financial details
Or even proof of its claims

That in my mind is REAL POWER.
and largely debunks many of the concepts that come from organizations like it (or those who support it).
If anything, its organizations like the BLM that have the most influence in the west today.
It is impossible to avoid their narratives.

Really, just use this thought process, and you will recognize where real power exists.
It blew my mind, and it led me to realize that much of what we understand in the modern world is based upon nothing but BS.

How can a true victim never have their authority questioned?
How can a true victim have all perspectives validated?
How can a true victim just on the basis of being what they are (race/sex/sexuality.. etc) be able to shut down any conversations, and apply terminology (like bigot, racist, sexist.. etc) to anything they wish without necessary justification?

When you apply these questions you realize nearly every social movement in the western world has a complete monopoly on "thought"
to such an extent that even my discussing it can lead to reprimands.

This means that no discussion actually exists.
Its simply "Us vs Them" and "You are with us or against us" mentalities.
Which are extremely authoritarian...

You will then recognize the extreme double standards that exist, and are never spoken about because they dont abide by the narrative.

This is what I mean
that is TRUE power

It is having the biggest stick. How you get it can be debated.
