    What came first, kings or the stories about kings?

    I think kings came first, and the story supported their power.

        Even if, why shouldn’t something doubtful be pointed out?

        But in this discussion it’s relevant. That White Jesus, do we believe that it is facts? Power is using fiction to create a following first. Then those followers prevent an opposition from forming.

        Now why are stories about sex opposed? There seem to be many reasons but one could be to encourage people to have sex. So the opposition tries to make people experience reality while Conservatives try to keep them in their fictional world.

        In other words, fiction is not only an enemy but also a friend of power.
