Andrew Kayos in 1991
Since the 1990s, Kayos has been credited with coining many terms used in El Kadsreian and/or international politics, such as "doing an Ito", which references Katashi Ito's incident wherein he attempted to shut down parliament to soften a scandal that almost prematurely ended his career. More recent terms coined by Kayos include "Tenninsonism", "the AOC effect" and "Neo-Kayoism".
Beliefs[]
Jacqui Vlokozu has described Andrew as "a man who's different from his father in several ways but tries to continue his legacy." Unlike his father, Andrew is more supportive of the monarchy; though he does have some republicanist ideas.

Controversies[]
Environmentalism[]
Kayos has accused environmentalists of "doing nothing to achieve their goals", using "global problems" for their own gain and favoring "publicity over change", with his latter point he accuses environmentalists of "weaponizing serious causes for attention", such as "calling out recognizable corporations and brands rather than simply encouraging them to give up on climate-damaging techniques in favor of sustainable ones."
"Falun Gong is a cult in denial" speech[]
Andrew Kayos has spoken out against Falun Gong, saying that "it is so obviously a cult that it's hard to not admit that you don't think the same way about it." He, however, also spoke out against persecution of Falun Gong practitioners by the Chinese government, saying "you could have just arrested Li Hongzhi and deprogrammed all his followers."
