It is not enough to know that an anti-tax crusader has been transformed into a redistributionist, by comparing before and after. The details in the middle matter.

If anybody wants on/off the revolutionary progressivism ping list, send me a message

Summary: I did not expect this false storyline to go back so far when I started looking into it. But true to the progressives' nature, they do not try to correct the story. Instead, they take advange because it helps their cause.

I think the point that gets missed is that the medieval times in England, under, I believe, the Same John mentioned in Robin Hood, signed the Magna Carta, which is part of the foundation for the U.S..

Riding through the land
Dennis Moore, Dennis Moore
Without a merry band
He steals from the poor. And gives to the rich
Stupid bitch.

Moore: What did you sing?

Singers: We sang... he steals from the poor and gives to the rich.

Moore: Wait a tic... blimey, this redistribution of wealth is trickier than I thought.

Nothing surprising about this. My medieval hero, Richard the Third, is also claimed to be a socialist by his leftie fans - all because he implemented bail and told the nobles to knock off being horrible to the peasants.

Robbed from the rich and the poor, and gave to himself is the way I heard it.....

Stephen Lawhead’s Robin Hood is my favorite by far
