Liber Legis uses the word "king" to mean Adept. At least, that's my view, and that of Soror Meral. This is routine Qabbalistic code, since Melekh is one of the titles of Tifereth.

No, no, no, that's all backwards.
It's saying that common folks (ordinary people, the masses) are likely the make fun of what they don't understand. Adepts are counselled not to fear being ridiculed by the masses.

100% agree!
The masses "ordinary people" have a totally different
Perspective of the world. It's easy to see where they might view Thelemites as bat shit
but that should
In no way deter us from the path.
We being Thelemites, free noble men and women
Should care little of what those in cages think of us.
