I love, when I see video in foreign language, but I still understand perfectly.

@flabbonix @LukeAlmighty @matrix @Telvannichad @IAMAL_PHARIUS

I disagree. The diversity crisis came first, then the political crisis, then the overextentsion and forever wars, and THEN the refinancialization.

@amerika @LukeAlmighty @matrix @Telvannichad @IAMAL_PHARIUS

if this is long-winded argument in favor of racism (yawn), we would have to see a lot more proof, timelines, etc...

@flabbonix @LukeAlmighty @matrix @Telvannichad @IAMAL_PHARIUS

Big assumption. Makes sense to look at likely candidates that are consistent across the course of empire.

Decay takes a long time.

@amerika @LukeAlmighty @matrix @Telvannichad @IAMAL_PHARIUS

yes, asking for specific proof of another bullshit racist argument is an "assumption", isn't it?

also makes sense to draw a direct causal line between the events you cite

@flabbonix @LukeAlmighty @matrix @Telvannichad @IAMAL_PHARIUS

What does "racist" mean in this context?

Saying "diversity does not work" is not "racism."

It's just noting biology and the resulting population dynamics.

I take it egalitarianism is your counter-argument?

Compare to Athens.

@amerika @LukeAlmighty @matrix @Telvannichad @IAMAL_PHARIUS

"Saying "diversity does not work" is not "racism.""

give me a fucking break

this discussion started with another yahoo trying to say Rome fell because of diversity. Now you try to throw a bunch irrelevant questions around.

try this at your local bar not here
@flabbonix @LukeAlmighty @matrix @amerika @IAMAL_PHARIUS The growing demographic change of germanics in the roman empire led to greater demands for citizenship and political power since most germanics worked as mercenary auxiliaries for the legions but were not formal soldiers that qualified for citizenship after service. Greater influx of foreign people led to social and economic strife as cultures,religion and attitudes clashed. This problem with the germanics grew so bad that by the time of Aurelian in the crisis of the 3rd century the romano-gallician Tertricus rallied the gauls into a splinter secessionist kingdom of a gallic empire and iberia that Aurelian had to reconquer.

Romans were racist against carthaginians but the carthaginians also sacrificed children to Baal so *shrug*

Why did I immediately wander, if common leftie would say:
Cartagians were sacrificing childs to Baal, but romans were racist to Carthagians so *shrug*

Modern Lefties would say that we too should sacrifice children to Baal in order to "fight inequality."

There's an adrenochrome gap!
