The Dictator’s Armor

Every time you strip a piece of armor off the Dictator, the monster shrinks.

Ego Identity

Metaphorical Narrative

The Dictator storms in, armored head to toe. Each word clangs like steel: orders, threats, demands.

You pull one plate loose. Then another. Each time, the voice weakens. Until nothing remains but a frail figure trembling in the open light.

Core Insight

The ego projects power through armor — a costume of force. Strip it piece by piece, and you see what it truly is: small, powerless, dependent on your belief.

Saturday Experiment

  1. When a commanding voice rises, name one “plate of armor” it hides behind.
  2. Imagine taking it off.
  3. Watch the figure shrink each time.

Sunday Reflection

  • What plates of armor did they strip today?
  • How did the Dictator look once unarmored?
  • Did the voice still carry the same weight?
