@nicholas @lain @georgia @eris Harrison Bergeron was a stupid story.
Yes, people have different abilities. Yes, a society that tries to suppress that is stupid. Ok, Harrison Bergeron is the most able of them all. So what? How does that give him the right to be "emperor"?
The kraterocracy meme needs to die.

@nicholas @lain @georgia @eris It seemed to be implying that he was right to pronounce himself emperor. I don't call that merely "succeeding".
I skimmed it before writing that but didn't reread the bit about Diana Moon Glampers killing him, so either I forgot it or it wasn't at the forefront of my mind.
