Does anyone else find the use of 'tsar' off putting?
These are not Roman emperors - not Slavic monarchs, nor kings, or other ecclesiastical officials. They're literally rewriting our culture. These are temporary positions being labelled as kings.
In the US government, people with real power are rarely if ever called czars; it seems like the term is only applied to lower-level appointees. Like many others, the term has become detached from its original meaning.
