Level 7 · 7 mo agoI think Kony comparing himself to Hitler proves he is a narcissist. That personality switching isn't spirits. It is a classic manipulation tactic to keep everyone unstable and too terrified to question him.

Level 2 · 7 mo agoThe political angle is a smokescreen. Kony wasn't a rebel leader. He was just running a brutal cult.
