I don't think Shiva is patron of actors.

Maybe in South India.

He's patron of drug addicts and outcasts.

Maybe in those days actors were considered such.

Patron of spies. theives, ghosts

In none of the stories is he himself an actor

Again he's conflated with Krsna

All the gods have the power of acting though, Trickery. To get the bad guy

Goes with the power of illujsion.. "Maya"

Shiva destroys Maya, so that's why it's connected to Krsna / visnu.. who's like the movie star.

Shiva is unsavoury and socially unaccepted, he's also an acetic yogi, time alone, that kind of thing

Not really the personality for an actor.

I just don't think that 's what Shiva's known for, in the story telling.

Krsna is known for acting in the stories and for using his power of maya to deceive.

I read a lot of the "Shastras" storybooks.

Also, like this

"Shiva" both is and "is not" all of these things; But I said "he is the patron of" meaning his followers / devotees are those things. If actors are low caste then ya, he'd be their Patron

Read something about why Christianity was "American"? had to do with laws

Of course they had laws in ancient India, but it was monarchy. And not laws for "the people." The laws would be dispensed in the Court of the King. Good kings / Bad Kings. But the Caste system itself is part of the religion; You can't really avoid that.

At least in principle and / or in ideal "American" dream is different from a strict caste system.

The cabal likely love caste system. Since they fancy themselves at the top. Psycho narcissists as they are.

Disgusting.
