    The thing with dictators/absolute rulers is that they cannot be wrong. Even when they are wildly wrong.

    When you go back and look at how the world bent over backwards to make itself align with whatever the top said, you would think the world mad. It’s only a recent thing that we the people aren’t bound to that madness.

    Slavery, murder, rape, killing, genocide, public execution, prisoners killed by wild animals, etc etc the list goes on.

    People who are in power can be supremely depraved.
