Her arguments would have made me side with the Viltrum empire. Repair our climate? End world hunger? Yes please. Make yourselves right at home and feel free to use any of our sociopathic billionaires and their corrupt political muppets as punching bags or chew toys whenever you feel a little murdery. That's just a welcome bonus. If you could maybe stream it live on TV, that'd be awesome.

Yeah we just have to become vassals to an empire that considers us little better then pets or cattle!

Would this drastically change the life of the average working class person? I mean, aside from minor things like universal access to cures for virtually every disease incl. cancer. And even if there are downsides, what should we first worlders be willing to give up in exchange for global equality (among humans) and the end of poverty and disease? Not to mention a solution for climate change that would otherwise kill our grandchildren and potentially wipe out our entire species along with 80% of the biosphere.

Yeah I’m guessing it’s not exactly as presented, because a) what do the viltrumites get out of this and is being the figurehead really all they want, and b) if they are so benevolent why the need for so much threats and violence?
