But to be fair, linking William freaking Shakespeare to [drumroll] the far-right is the best thing that could happen to 'the far-right'.

Even the 'Egypt was black' people are smart enough to claim Shakespeare as one of their own. One must be very special to say: "The most ingenious playwright and poet who ever lived? NO! He belongs to the people over there whom we hate!"

Well, yeah. I didn't name myself Antonio of Venice for no reason.

...most ingenious playwright and poet who ever lived?

I mean, sure, Shakespeare is cool and all...I guess.

But have you considered the Bengali poet Rabindranath Tagore?! Or Bollywood?!

Thought not, bigot!

Some of its organised events celebrated Bengali poet Rabindranath Tagore, and a Romeo and Juliet-inspired Bollywood dance workshop.

I believe you may have an identical twin, as does your servant.
