I would imagine the world would be like the Psychlos in that Battlefield earth if everyone was just like me.

A world without people would be better than the current world.

If everyone was like anyone person would be doomed.

Everyone has flaws that only someone completely differently could notice and assist with

Everyone has jobs needed in society that they can not do with any competence

Varied politic and social views are needed to stop extreme views from becoming the norm

The world wouldn't be a better place if everyone was like me, because it takes all kinds to make the world go round. We need human variety of all types.

No. We would all be too depressed to do anything.

No one would ever interact with each other except on random message boards.

You won't ever see any wars or crime though, because those things usually involve violating another persons personal space.

Maybe. The world would be full of women who are into Lego, Hot Wheels, computers, cartoons, radiation and PC gaming... seems like heaven to me.

Everyone would be on time because they would be using timetables, everyone would be blunt and truthful, everyone would be open-minded, everyone would be nice to animals (and sometimes cry over killing a bug), there would be zero violence, everyone would be an atheist so there would be no silly arguments over religion... it would be good. Except the human race would die out pretty fast since everyone would be a woman so ya know... nobody would be able to reproduce and also everyone would hate crying babies and children... and also nobody would be able to look after themselves or do anything without someone helping them...

Jeeze, I guess it wouldn't be a good thing if everyone was like me.

It depends on how similar everyone were to me.

Realistically if everyone were exactly like me (or any one human being), the world would still be pretty primitive because we need different kinds of people with different strengths (and weaknesses) to overcome problems.

If everyone had a similar personality to mine with different strengths, then yes, the world would be a far better place because I am a good person.

If everyone were like me, we'd still be living in crude wooden shelters and caves.

I'm too complacent.

This works. No need to change things.

Definitely not.
Well, perhaps the world itself would be a better place since everyone would be doing what is right and there would be advanced technology since everyone would love to invent and fix stuff. But noone would be happy. People would argue all the time (stubbornness) and there would be noone to live for since everyone could have equal possibilities and tendency to be undependable. I hate depending on anyone but to be happy I need someone that depends on my possibilities.

So no, thank you. I am sick enough of living with my father. He is not exact copy of me but since we got a lot in common we constantly argue and feel hated by each other(although it is not true, we just both don't have the ability to show love). I can't imagine more people like that in my life.
