>>11191032>Blood MeridianThe Judge is the very essence of every right wing ideology made flesh and he is the villain. The whole point of the book is the judge is only ever able to exist as he is on the very fringes of society, on the frayed border where humanity ends and madness begins. Also the fact that he's an albino (i.e. whiter than cream cheese despite already being a white guy) is not in the least coincidental, nor is his obsession with cataloguing everything.
