User:Artisan Duke

Artisan Duke is the alias of an asocial American youth from the Ohio River Valley who edits Wikipedia sometimes. He identifies as a socially conservative collectivist with authoritarian tendencies. He deplores the two-party system in the United States, and identifies as an Independent.

When not rambling pretentiously about politics, Duke takes a healthy interest in a number of diverse subjects, including his own family history, tabletop role-playing games such as Dungeons & Dragons, and the local history of the Huntington-Ashland-Ironton metropolitan statistical area. He is a proud native of Ashland, Kentucky.

Duke's interests also include all matters related to the Abrahamic religions, particularly the histories of Judaism and Christianity. He is especially enamored with Biblical, as well as Talmudic, studies. His knowledge of Hebrew and Aramaic is basic, but highly limited. Recently he has taken an interest in religious fringe sects, particularly those conservative Christian groups which emerged in the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries, such as the Shakers, plain Quakers, and fundamentalist Mormons.
