The SHOCKING Truth About Why People Follow Corrupt Leaders Why do people worship corrupt leaders—knowing they lie, steal, and manipulate? Why are the worst leaders often celebrated as heroes? In this deep-dive, we explore the psychological and philosophical forces behind this disturbing phenomenon, guided by the insights of Friedrich Nietzsche. From the Will to Power and master-slave morality to ressentiment and the fear of responsibility, Nietzsche’s philosophy helps us understand why societies elevate leaders who break the rules—and why we often admire them. Using real-world examples, and the FIFA scandal, we examine how authoritarianism thrives, why charisma can blind us, and how our need for control, tribal identity, and hero-worship make us vulnerable to corruption. 🔍 Whether you're interested in philosophy, psychology, or simply want to understand why “bad” leaders win, this video will challenge your assumptions and offer insights into how we can resist manipulation—and choose better. #Nietzsche #PsychologyOfPower #LeadershipPsychology #CorruptLeadership #PhilosophyExplained #WillToPower
