One must still have chaos in oneself to be able to give birth to a dancing star. -Nietzsche

Empowered

When you are being empowered, someone is inadvertently being honest and has decided you are unable to accomplish basic tasks for yourself. They create equality between the athlete and the invalid cripple by temporarily paralyzing the capable and then manipulating the cripple to simulate movements he cannot make for himself.

The motivation to empower is secondarily suspect. What are they getting in exchange for temporarily propping up the least capable? It is cruel to say the unfit can do the same as the fit, not only for creating false hopes that will never come true, but for projecting the illusion of a normative egalitarian world that lacks exceptional qualities and acts.
