baby dictator conundrum

A theoretical problem in which a person is a time traveler and has traveled back to the infantile stage of something horrible happening (e.g. traveling back to when a dictator was a baby) and can choose to either put a complete stop to it (killing the baby) or try to turn it into something good instead (raising the baby to not be a terrible person).

Person 1: "What would you do if you could go back in time to when Hitler was a baby?"

Person 2: "Ah yes, the good ol' baby dictator conundrum."

The Dictator’s Bubble

A psychological and political phenomenon in which an authoritarian leader becomes isolated from accurate information due to state-controlled propaganda, loyalist networks, and filtered intelligence, causing them to overestimate their own power, the strength of their country, or the effectiveness of their policies. This bubble reinforces overconfidence, suppresses dissent, and increases the likelihood of strategic miscalculations, especially in military, economic, or political decision-making.

"Putin’s decisions in Ukraine show he’s living in the dictator’s bubble."
