W25Reptilocracy 🦎🏛️ Stable Enough to Remain Unpredictable
Teaser
As long as the screaming stays within the institutional comfort band, it is considered a leadership style. The cabinet has officially reclassified his outbursts as acceptable variance.
TLDR
The committee mistakes a weather pattern for a personality. They prioritize continuity over psychological fitness, ensuring that rage is always rebranded as a tolerable leadership trait.Context
The meeting focused entirely on the decibels. No one brought up impulse control or reality-contact because those things are far too messy for a standard assessment.
Instead, the assessors simply checked if the screaming fit the historical average. If the outburst stays within the approved range, the green stamp is applied. The institution does not require a healthy leader; it only requires that the chaos remains within the budget.
BUT WHY:
This is part of an experiment: we are keeping count of how many scenes it takes before we agree that leaders with real power should prove they are psychologically fit to hold it.
By turning our instincts and hive habits into animals, the project asks why we still let untested nervous systems run entire societies.
In a world where one unstable nervous system can scale to entire institutions, this project treats Reptilocracy as the cartoon diagnosis and points to one concrete step: the Change.org petition (Stronger Checks and Balances: Psychological Fitness for Australia’s Top Leaders).
