That’s why I hate it when conservatives trot out that fake Voltaire quote about the ones who you can’t criticize are who rules you.
Bullshit. Kings and emperors have been satirized and mocked for millennia. It’s not that they can’t be criticized, it’s that after their nakedness is on display, the accusations fade into the dirt; nothing sticks, nothing matters.
