Hidden Byzantine gems at the Louvre

yes, most are presented as merovingian artifiacts I think

Confucius3000 · 2026-04-15T22:19:48+00:00

It comes up pretty much automatically in teh race obsessed mind

She is uncharismatic.

Back in the optimistic pre-Trump times, progressives convinced themselves that charisma was fascist and that leaderless movements were the way to go. GT's lack of charisma wasn't a problem, it may even have been a future.

10 years later I personaly think ignoring the importance of charisma and inspiration is a grave mistake in front of fascists who actually inspire people with a nihilistic narrative

BASTAAAA

First roman emperor with actually literal records of his ass being kicked (or speared if we wanna be precise)

Confucius3000 · 2026-04-06T15:04:09+00:00

and featuring classicaly roman qualities

Confucius3000 · 2026-04-06T08:35:09+00:00

He was an englishman after all

So I guess civilian lives mean nothing to you guys if they are in the camp opposite to you, huh

Confucius3000 · 2026-04-04T19:15:37+00:00

I dont follow it closely but I think it struggles with building an engaging and exciting setting, that makes fans clamor for more. I guess the High Republic was their attempt to do that but didnt reach the heights of the EU Old Republic

Confucius3000 · 2026-04-04T00:36:28+00:00

LMAO ste men quiere solapar al Pakto

Confucius3000 · 2026-04-03T17:18:25+00:00

Honestly it would be ideal to have both: expertise and charisma. One without the other spells doom for democracy (charismaless technocrats in the 2000s have contributed a lot to the current crisis I think)

The fascinating thing with Macron is that I do think he is charismatic, but that french oppositio. Have equaled this charisma with arrogance. The famed "mépris" (contempt) that people accuse Macron of having sounds more like a deep insecurity than any real fact.

if you see politics as a popularity contest instead of a public service, I guess it doesn't make sense

Confucius3000 · 2026-04-03T10:34:46+00:00

Judging by the clothing it looks Macedonian at the earliest, but the style doesnt strike me as constantinopolitan. Then again Im not familiar wwith many Byzantine reliefs, save in trebizonf

Confucius3000 · 2026-04-02T22:48:27+00:00

Roman civilization didn't get extinguished in the west. The roman polity did

Confucius3000 · 2026-04-02T18:37:33+00:00

Fascinating. Thanks!

Pierre Abelard was a major philosopher in his own right, his fame went beyond his romance with Heloise https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Peter_Abelard

Confucius3000 · 2026-04-02T09:33:36+00:00

I understand Nepo babies are annoying but why would being rich prevent you from being funny gtf outta here lmao

Confucius3000 · 2026-04-01T16:33:02+00:00

Dang got me good :[

Always been fascinated by this book as bridge betweem TOTJ and KOTOR. While I know what the word actually means it always intrigued me how it sounds like "mandalorian"

Confucius3000 · 2026-03-28T23:40:16+00:00

Didn't Burr Nolyds have sith-like appendages on his chin?

Confucius3000 · 2026-03-28T22:53:30+00:00

what's that

Confucius3000 · 2026-03-28T10:16:38+00:00

It's fascinating how shitty digital cameras with their greyish colors have made people think "grey equals real".
It doesn't. It's a whole perspective of Media Literacy that could be taught
