True, we ought to proactively avoid such cults. My suggestion was merely that, in the event that you figure out what your True Wishes are, persuading other people to follow them is an effective way to achieve them. It is hard to get something accomplished by yourself. Since your True Wishes involve not being a fascist dictator, you will have to find a balance between not telling anyone what you think and starting a death cult.
Perhaps I shouldn’t have said “convincing other people to follow you” but rather “convincing other people to work towards your True Wishes.”
