By "power" I mean some sort of authority over others, like the kind held by a politician, a corporate executive, a military officer, a landlord, a monarch, or a dictator. If you desire power, what kind would you like? What would you do with said power? How would you treat your underlings?

I favor dominance from the shadows. If you have any idea who I am, I have already lost my power.

Authority is meaningless, much rather have infinite money to go fuck around in South East Asia for the rest of my life.

If we speak about politics no I don't desire it, if we speak about hierarchy at work place, I wouldn't mind to have "power" which would mean being higher x) (but mainly I would want that for more money to earn instead of power ) for the last question how I would treat people under me ---> normally, I would be kind and nice to them as they deserve it and as everyone deserve it.

Not power. Only acknowledgement, respect, admiration, gratitude, appreciation, understanding and affection. I like it when I get some unexpected validation when I’m not looking for it. And if I don’t get it when I am looking for it that’s okay because I’ll carry on regardless.

Not really. I have no interest in that. And it also sounds like so much work. And I’m too lazy for that.

Yes in a way. If I have power over others I will have more power over my own decisions too.

Nah I don't need power, I just need the illusion of power so I can force girls sleep with me and they'll be too frightened to laugh at my weird balls.

No because even if I have the best of intentions, either the power itself would corrupt me or someone would have me assassinated for not giving in to their attempts at corrupting me.

There's a good reason you don't really see genuinely good people in any significant positions of power.

"I shouldn’t for the sake of humanity"๐Ÿ‘น๐Ÿถ.Jokes aside with great power comes even greater responsibilities.So my answer is yes I desire power but it's impossible to achieve and have that kind of a power if you mean superpowers from any anime.

Of course I want power. I'm a Lockean through and through: the more power I have, the more freeing and satisfying it is to willingly hand it to someone else.

I am not interested in power at all but you said landlord. I would like to be a landlord ngl. Making money from land is a dream.

Of course. When I went to the School of Wizardry they arrogantly told me I had zero aptitude for life magic, nurturing, and healing. But... off the charts in destruction. Which is unnatural. So I came back and burned that motherfricker down...

enough financial power for myself would be nice but that is all since as they say power corrupts and with great power comes with great responsibility so meh im too lazy to solve those added drama in my life if the time comes

but power fantasy like in watching anime? sure since i can safely imagine them without experiencing all their troubles lol

I might get a little high off power but I only need a little bit and in certain areas of my life. Other areas I’m completely fine not being in the power position.

Nothing shady about yielding, friend. I twist no words, make no innuendos, nor imbue no meaning; I only speak the truth. You just didn't notice it because you had no ulterior motives in learning it.

I desired power at one point but then I realized that "power" is subjective so I simply believed I was powerful and now I am (or at least have convinced myself I am).
Just imagine this signature is cool as hell <3 love you boss
