There are a few handfuls of expansionist narcissistic oligarchs, dictators and uber rich that ruin the experience for everyone else.
Seriously, we hang a few dozen very specific guys from the gallows and literally the world would be saved the next day. All of the sudden genocides are over, we can focus fully on stopping climate change, we can form a UN that can enforce peace, we can implement wealth caps where nobody gets crazy rich anymore… Can you imagine?
Seriously… That is the weirdness of the problem. We have a few people with so much power that 8 billion of us have their lives ruined by at most a few hundred
I would change John Lenno’s “imagine” to “imagine we hang the parasite class and implemented wealth caps, it isn’t hard to do”
Mh sorry but there are FAR FAR more, like orders of magnitude, people that make it worse for everyone else just so they can have even the slightest advantage (or even just so others have none).
Because the world sucks and there is nothing I can do with it
The world doesn’t suck
The world is awesome

Would you go regional for example each country has to pick 10 specific arseholes, or would you pick a number and pick 200 or so despite location?
And do you think there is a ranking system say politician, warmonger, Tech-bro, media owner, CEO and so on?
I think this is an actual use for AI, to analyse these scenarios and figure removing which figure benefits humanity the quickest.
