I've always thought you would nail the hypocrisy inherent within Roman human sacrifices... how they were often outwardly against it and still did them REGULARLY at the end of every Triumph or when the Sibylline books were consulted.

Connecting that hypocrisy to modern political rhetoric is so you!
YouTube Comment section responding to "What aspect of Roman religion should we cover next?" with "The importance of sacrifice with a focus on the hypocrisy of claiming to disdain human sacrifices while entertaining them for Sibylline prophecy or basically the apex of every Republican triumph. I feel it tells a lot about a culture to know what's sacred, what's profane, and in what circumstances that line gets crossed."
