not only was Sulla a bloody dictator but he didn't fix any of the problems that he set out to fix after taking power

Sulla thought the problem with the Roman Republic was the unwashed masses causing political instability through the Tribune of the Plebs

The Sullan reforms was meant to stabilize the Republic by entrench power in the senate oligarchs while neutering the power of the Tribune of the Plebs

except the actual problem was more like the senate were corrupt reactionaries unwilling to make reforms to make the life of the common people livable, and that the military was increasingly personally loyal to various general-politicians who were willing to use it to launch civil wars to seize power (first of which is....Sulla himself)

so his reforms fell apart within a couple decades of his death, and within a generation you had Pompey, Caesar and the end of the Republic

They found a music video she did years ago on YouTube. She claimed posting it without her permission was a type of revenge porn, which was enough for YouTube to ban a few people she reported. By canceling some alt right D listers she promptly fell from grace among them, as everyone knows perfidious lies are stored in the ovaries so you can't trust women.

idk but I think it is true that a GED is not a good idea when home schooling. You parent gives you a diploma like any real school would. And legally I guess that's protected. A GED suggests dropping out

Sulla proceeded to have the Senate draw up a list of those he considered enemies of the state and published the list in the Roman Forum. Any man whose name appeared on the list was ipso facto stripped of his citizenship and excluded from all protection under law; reward money was given to any informer who gave information leading to the death of a proscribed man, and any person who killed a proscribed man was entitled to keep part of his estate (the remainder went to the state). No person could inherit money or property from proscribed men. Many victims of proscription were decapitated and their heads were displayed on spears in the Forum

huh, weird. that doesn't sound like the kind of person a 'free speech absolutist' would support :thunk:

yeah but it's still there. I had a random video of animal cruelty show up in my feed because I had it set to "for you" instead of "following". I reported it on June 5 and just now I got a notification that they received my report. i hardly use twitter anymore

I’m begging people to watch less media and stop thinking this is a real thing. It is just the writer’s excuse to not kill off a character they like. Martyrs are as meaningful to a cause as a new logo. Nobody respects someone for getting killed.

They don't seem very effective at creating meaningful change in this age. We know the names of who the police murdered, but that has not changed policing in any substantial way. No cop thinks "Oh, I hope I'm not too rough, don't want another George Floyd"
