so far: no

you use the word 'unreasoning'

I have a reason.

glatt:

how do you think the citizenry would fare in your society?

how deeply would you control the society?

that is: beyond safeguarding your power, how deeply would you manage the economy, the arts, individual work choices, etc.

i guess i wanna know how open or closed your society would be

I hadn't really thought that far.

Mostly, I'd just want people to have a good time and all get along. Be prosperous, and all that. And of course, I would want to be very prosperous and powerful myself.

Except someone would surely try to assassinate me to take my power. So never mind. I don't want any part of it.

in the meursaultocracy women would outnumber men 5 to 1 and i would always control the remote.

and use of the word "utilize" would incur flogging.

and that's all.

oh, and "paradigm" too.

and that's all.

well, and this chair...
