    how did rural crackers ever take any of this shit seriously it sounds like it’s ripped from Dungeons and Dragons … but like it’s just wild to me that that, in this case, meant calling a bunch of nerds “exalted cyclops” and “great titan” at their weird cult meetings

    Maybe they didn’t and it was like a high fantasy for them. Obviously it’s only policy that actually matters and in this case it’s harming minorities but admittedly having silly titles like that is such a good parody of the legal system and civil religion that I kind of want actual government titles to be like that now
