Notice the obsession with kings on the woke right. Matthew 4:8-9.
For every 3,000 paleocon post-liberals on here calling me a “retarded lying Zionist liberal,” there are just a few who are willing to be honest, and for that I’m grateful. It makes all the rest worth it.

There are some truly evil people in this world, but when we understand what my hero Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn was saying here, it's clear that we should probably label people as "evil" more sparingly than we normally do. Now, labeling ideas and trends? That's a different story. 6/
