A throwback to a series of books that (almost) no one talking about the D&D alignment axes (the axes came from the ideas of the books) knows of anymore: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Elric_of_Melniboné There are actual gods/forces of law and chaos.
Because the idea of lawful/chaotic NOW draws from the dnd heritage, which has watered down the concepts to ‘follows laws’ and ‘breaks laws’ and sadly, most of these pictured assholes ‘follow’ the laws because their kind got to write the laws. Trump is basically the only exception, and is also basically the only one who is questionably a billionaire.
They absolutely do not follow laws. They break the laws that don’t get charged, like wage laws. And probably half of them have committed r word against kids. They have the appearance of being lawful, because they have enough money to hide their crimes.
Lawful?

Trump chances his mind on policies constantly. He’s governing through chaos. So again Lawful?
Yeah, he’s very much NE.
I understand what it is, but I strongly disagree that it applies to these monsters.
