Read Adam Gopnick on Zelenskyy (yy the Ukraine way)

[Mark Kohut]

and Rabelais thru Bakhtin in The New Yorker; remember that Pynchon has been
often called Rabelasian and see how Zelenskyy is like a positive Pynchon
protagonist..but with charisma and heroic leadership skills....The Groucho
of the Marx Brothers, so to allude and so to speak....Slothrop with great
responsibility
used heroically.....Maxine working it all out day by day.....

If Pynchon got the depth of his anti-charisma remark from Max Weber, and
that is very likely,
Weber adds that the problem with being naturally charismatic is acting on
it for oneself...it gives one
power over others and THAT is where the problem of charisma lies......

Zelensky uses his charisma for his people, his country, democracy, of
course....
