If you could only have one, which would you pick?
>>
LOVE IS POWER
so love, 100%
heartless power is so boring
I wouldn't even know what to do with it
>>
power is for psychopaths

love is better and makes you mentally better off
>>
Love. I am not ambitious or smart, power would be wasted on me. I'd be completely satisfied living a quaint little life with someone who loves me.
>>

Love.

Letting me have power is a waste.

>>27139167
Love is fictional, so I pick power
>>
Love. My 28th birthday was yesterday and when I sat down and thought about it and realized that I'm a 28-year old virgin with no friends stuck working a retail job that barely pays above minimum wage I just burst out crying and didn't stop for a whole hour. I would give anything, ANYTHING, for just ONE nice conversation with a girl who seems interested in me but literally every time I've ever tried to start one, even with something innocent like "I like your shoes" or "Can you tell me where X is?" they either ignore me or give me a look of disgust and walk away or give me short one-word answers and make it very obvious they want me to leave.

IT'S NOT FAIR FUCK EVERYTHING I WANT TO DIE
>>
Power under the mask of love
>>
Power

Bitches love power
>>
Power, unless the love I get is anime like the picture on the left.
>>
>>27139167
I want love, but love isn't real. So I guess power.
>>
>>27139167
Love.
Power is a constant struggle for very little
>>
>>27139167
Only a foolish man doesn't understand that there are the same thing.
>>
>>27139167
I pick true, perfect, romantic, soulmate level love.

I mean I assume power is political power. Not superpowers. Not even mundane superpowers like immortality without invincibility.

My goal in life is to relax through the lifespan of the universe. And I would be double happy if I had companionship. But the companionship seems less acheivable for me. So i wish for love.

My negro
I hope I'll be there to watch it end with you
>>
Power obviously, you could force people to love you.
>>
Like my robot Himler I want power. With power I won't need love because love is for women and gays. With power I can do robot hobbies like sperg about genetics all day every day with my other sperg friend who has a charlie chaplan mustache.

I CHOOSE UNLIMITED POWEEEER
>>
Power, that way I could make everyone else sad.
>>
Love. Power can be usurped and makes you a target.
>>
Power. I don't care about love.
>>
>>27139167
Women never love you, they love the power you have.
>>
Power.

Because I am unable to accept love.
>>
>>27139167
I have no idea what love feels like. I do know what power feels like. And it's pretty good.
>>
>>27139167
Give me the power and I'll make my own a force to be reckoned with
>>
>>27139167
"Love" as we know it from disney movies doesn't really exist, while power is a concrete, quantifiable metric that can be transferred between groups/individuals or can be held exclusively by one or more persons.

Power can easily earn you "love" i.e. adoration and affection from the ladies, but "love" cannot give you power, and in most cases actually hinders you from gaining any as it leaves you in a state where you are emotionally open and aware, creating vulnerabilities that you are subjecting yourself to.

So power would be the best choice.
>>
Power, because then people would be forced to love me.

lol im kidding fuck that
>>
>>27139167
Power.
I'll take on the karma of ruling, but not after killing alot of people first. Israel must be destroyed.
>>
>>27139167
>not chosing power

Its like you wanna stay an eternal loser
>>
> If I have the gift of prophecy and can fathom all mysteries and all knowledge, and if I have a faith that can move mountains, but do not have love, I am nothing.
>>
>>27141431
You can't. All you could do is force people to pretend to love you out of fear or force women to let you fuck them.
>>
The only reason you have power is to get love so I guess love. I never understood why rich man pick ugly women.
>>
>>27139167
>not wanting to go absolute pain mode on this sorry ass world
power easily, I want to get rid of all the stupidity that has been created
>>
>>27139280
You can have more fun with power if you're not a fucking retard.

"""Love""" doesn't have a happy ending no matter what.
>>
>>27139335
Damn dude. Just keep trying, go get out and go to some clubs or activites or whatever. Go hiking, get in shape if you aren't. Meet some hiking groups if that's your thing, make some friends or at least try to.

Just keep trying man.
>>
>>27139167
I've felt love, once. I miss it like a drug.

I've never felt power. It's probably a similar feeling.

So as much as I want to say power, I would have to say love.
>>
Love.


Power can win you the world, but it won't ever make anyone love you sincerely.
>>
Power. Fuck the world. I just want to be left alone and enjoy all the creature comforts on this earth.
>>
>>27139167
Power, always power.
>>
>>27139167
All i ever wanted is power. This world is not worthy of this universe
>>
Power.

People are attracted to those in power, and 98% of all love ends. If you choose love when it ends you will be alone. If you choose power then you will have countless lovers.
>>
>>27139754
and love isn't? Love sucks. I pick power
>>
>>27139167
Love gives me the motivation to gain power. Power first would make it hard for me to trust anyone, especially when it comes love. I wouldn't want them to be attracted to me only because of my status.
>>
>>27139167
God is love, so love is better.

When we seek power, we invariably seek to equal God in his command of affairs, even when we lack any of His love (which is His essential nature). See the Garden of Eden, the Tower of Babel, or any historical instance of personal or national greatness to see how that works out.
>>
>>27139167
This is the hardest question that anyone has ever asked to me, I am not prepared to answer
>>
>>27139167
Would my power be super in any way?

Love pls.
What good is power if you can't fry your brain on dopamine with it?

Love if there is such a thing as a loyal woman. (protip: there isn't)

Even if its wasted on me, i would have some fun instead of just living and dying unnoticed.

And "love" is a trap i'm not falling for.

both are illusions that will corrupt you if you try to pursue/find them outside of yourself.
