I had heard about the Marquis de Sade, the word "sadism" comes from his name.
Andrea Dworkin, radical feminist has a whole chapter about him in one of her books, disclosing the way he abused women(a bunch of them) during his lifetime and the way his sycophants (who are most likely all part of the elite also) tried to make him look like some sort of heroic figure in a sexually repressed society while he was in fact a violent degenerate. He used his title and his money and influence to get away from the authorities.
It's crazy that his books are still in bookshelves. It seems that to be published you have to further the elite's sick agenda also.
