Been around since before the 1st century AD.  Just take a look at this guy (yes, that's a guy).  A very twisted guy in many, many ways.

Here's the dude's bio:  https://www.ancient-origins.net/history-famous-people/madness-caligula-rome-s-cruelest-emperor-002132

Reminds me of Hagzilla Clanton except the sexes are supposedly opposite!!!  I ain't so sure . . .

He was one sick dude and his ruling years sound very much like what will happen here in America if we elect a democrap.  History repeats itself, or so they say.  I don't discount it except no one has yet been poisoned (like Caligula was, supposedly).
