A type of dishonest villain is seen in Nathaniel Hawthorn's short stories about greedy, sly, and slippery characters that offer snake-oil balms, take their money and leave in a puff!

Milan Kundara describes who the con works in a novel about Kitsch, where the Soviet party want to tell the fate of individual party members. What will happen to the loyal party-member?? Will he or his family have to move? Will someone be erased?

What makes the kitsch or ironic humor so funny, is that Kundara writes a book of salient humor that involves trickery, deception, and outright fraud about the 1956 coup of the Czech republic when the mighty U.S.S.R. controlled the eastern-block countries with an iron-fist. The Soviets, the loyalists to the communist Party, founded on the so-called principles of Karl Marx and Friedrich Engels, in the seminal work, Das Kapital, 1848, wanted an end to laissez-faire capitalism of the Victorian Age, that was abusive as Charles Dickens notes in Hard Times. Emil Zola, Jack London, and Huxley noted that in the 19th century, workers were enslaved because of profit-motif, the businessmen forced workers into early graves. Child labor was common; women had no right, could not earn money, nor get married without losing their property to men. Hard Time were seen for the poor and marginalized. Thus, the socialist and communist party sprung up. The Stalin State erased idealism with it Shock worker polices, robbing the worker of dignity, art, music, and religion. Protest writers fought back until they were caught, shot, or fell out of balconies, or poisoned, or committed suicide.

The impervious villain is continually employing schemes, misinformation, and specious arguments based on fallacies, gossip, and lies, a body of illogical and nonsensical conspiracy theories that conflict with basic common sense. The Wild West charlatans who sale books, balms, sacred relics, etc. The satire "Canterbury Tales."
