I'm going to attempt to explain what's going on with the Skyking thing for people who don't get it. Rich is a martyr. And if you don't get that, then you aren't part of the people or culture that understands *immediately* what I meant by that I will try and explain 1/

First why he's not the same as Killdozer. Remove the Killdozer and he's a man with many grudges. We can sympathize, but we can't really empathize. It is too absurd. There are few who can really relate to that. It's a good folk tale, but it doesn't speak to a human condition. 2/

There are actually few white men who strive to be Great Men, even if the spark is there. Bell curve distribution, after all. Those not degenerated are humble people. Home and hearth. Wife and child. This is not a future for many of them now Martyrs in a psychic prison. 8/
