One of his last acts was to tell Taylor Swift she should submit to her new husband.

He quoted that from the bible. It comes with a caveat that most people seem to ignore. That caveat basically says that Husbands should put their wives best needs and interests before their own.
You cant have the first bit with out applying the second

A caveat he appears to have ignored - -  Without wishing to get all Gorean about things; do you think women should submit to their husbands?

No but should never be let lose on hi-tech equipment....

QuoteA caveat he appears to have ignored - -  Without wishing to get all Gorean about things; do you think women should submit to their husbands?

As far as I understand it, Both husband and wife should submit to each other - eg you both look after each others best interests. If your doing that its impossible for either party to be controlling or dictatorial.

So in answer to the question Yes, but only if the husband is submitting to his wife.

eg
Its 8pm Mrs Orcs is tired after a busy day and cooking the evening meal - Submitting to my need for a good meal after work

Problem: My shirt needs Ironing (Pink Job) as I have a meeting tomorrow at work. 

There are three solutions to the problem.

Solution 1 :- I ask Mrs Orcs to Iron my shirt -
Solution 2 :- I choose to wear another shirt.
Solution 3 : I Iron the shirt as I can see my wife is tired.
   
Solution 1
This is incorrect as while my wife has submitted to me, I have not put her need for rest before my need for a shirt.
 
Solution 2
This is also incorrect,  as I am still leaving my tired wife with the shirt to iron tomorrow. That is not in her best interests.

Solution 3

This is the correct response, I have submitted to my wife by allowing her to rest while taking away the chore of ironing the shirt thus looking after her best interests. 

We could really do with in ignore feature to be able to block people who defend racist, misogynist, homophobic fascists.

Okay- but  Charlie Kirk  only  said that Taylor Swift should submit- there wasn't any  exploration of reciprocity. Just saying

QuoteWe could really do with in ignore feature to be able to block people who defend racist, misogynist, homophobic fascists.

I was bit minded of this

He also said these things too - are thy also in the bible?
