machiavelodrome

A venue for young Italians to simultaneously ride bicycles really fast and hone the art of amoral and manipulative politics.

Berlusconi cut his teeth at the machiavelodrome, learning how to undermine the moderate left with deconstructive rhetoric while posting a new personal best for the season in the 5km sprint.

Deus Ex Machina

Literally "God from the machine", Deus Ex Machina originally referred to Greek plays, where the "gods" would be lowered onto the stage in order to provide a quick resolution to the story. Today, Deus Ex Machina refers to any improbably and/or overly convenient character or mechanism that comes out of nowhere saves the character(s) from their doom.

For a hilarious send-up of Deus Ex Machina, check out the spaceship scene in Monty Python's Life of Brian.

Machiavellian

Someone who is extremely good at manipulating and deceiving people for their own selfish gain. Examples of Machiavellians include, but are not limited to: IRS scammers, sugar daddys, e-girls, e-prostitutes, black hat hackers, Donald Trump, your girlfriend (potentially), sketchy sellers on Aliexpress, and that guy down the street who claims he is homeless.

If you are a Machiavellian, please do take note that machiavellianism begets machiavellianism. Research has shown that people who have been psychologically manipulated are more likely to manipulate others.

Dude 1: So I heard you bought some custom videos from this e-girl on Reddit, how'd that go for you?
Dude 2: Extremely bad. I thought she was legit and everything, she even showed me a screenshot of the video, but once I had paid her she never replied back.
Dude 1: Damn dude, I mean I wouldn't have trusted some random internet girl in the first place. The online sex market is filled with Machiavellians, y'know?

Machiavelli

whether you subscribe to the ideas of a 16th century Italian political philosopher. But experiments have shown that reactions to Machiavelli act as a kind of litmus test, delineating differences in temperament that can be confirmed with more traditional personality inventories. High Machs constitute a distinct type: charming, confident and glib, but also arrogant, calculating and cynical, prone to manipulate and exploit

True low Machs, however, can be kind of dependent, submissive and socially inept. So be sure to invite a high Mach or two to your next dinner party.

high Machiavelli - Think Rupert Murdoch, or if your politics permit it, President Clinton.
