King Arthur Fallacy

The belief that a society simply needs to elect the right leader and give the leader all the power they ask for, ignoring that 1) a leader who makes one group happy will hurt another group, and 2) the powers given to the one good leader will still be in effect when their successor takes power.
Person A: "You don't get it! If we can just ignore the Constitution and give (politician) more power, they'll fix everything!"
Person B: "That's the King Arthur Fallacy! As good as King Arthur may have been, he's at the very least mostly fiction, and all the kings that followed still wielded his power, for better or for worse.

King Crimson

In my book, one of the GREATEST progressive rock bands that spawned in England and left an amazing legacy. Along with Pink Floyd.
They formed between 1968 and 1969 and first disbanded in 1974. After that, they returned in 1981...to be disbanded again three years later...then 1994 to 2008...and, their final round, 2013 to 2021.
While King Crimson is progressive rock, they drew inspiration from a wide variety of music, incorporating elements of classical, jazz, folk, heavy metal, gamelan, industrial, electronic, experimental music and even new wave.
Oh, shit. Did I mention Pink Floyd? We can't just leave out Yes and the Soft Machine.
Alfred: England has some really good bands-
Josh: Go ahead and name some.
Alfred: ...King Crimson, Pink Floyd, Yes, the Soft Machine...
Josh: (Why are all of them things I like?!)

Key-board-king

A boy, turned to man only from the power of his key board. Mighty words from someone behind a screen. Yet in person is very silent as if the screen time never accursed.
