    Yep! Always has been.

    Ashoka the great who’s credited with doing a lot to spread buddhism globally was a murderous warlord known for his personal torture prison called “Ashoka’s hell”. After he brutally killed uprisings against his rule he plowed state funds into a PR campaign to change his name from ashoka the cruel to ashoka of the dharma.

    Bill gates is another good example, he’s a pedophile known for running one of the most toxic work cultures, but he can use some of the money he made illegally stifling competition to rehab his image.
