This story has a great deal of relevancy to today- the perils of abusing a position of authority is something that some people still need to learn.

On the one hand, absolutely. On the other hand, I am of course worried that the people who would brutally murder their terrible leaders are people who I probably disagree with about which leaders should get brutally murdered, so it's probably best for society if we don't brutally murder our terrible leaders.

But man it is satisfying to read in fiction.
