Obviously that's facetious, I'm reading "the road to Jonestown" because I know the outcome, but didn't know any of the history. Dude genuinely seems fantastic at 20% through the book, succeeding at integrating many aspects of Indianapolis and providing respectful food banks, clothing, and geriatric care to all people. The clues that his ego will outpace him are there, but damn, Jim Jones of 1957ish seems like someone I'd strongly admire.
History is weird.
