Rome was never a democracy. Rome didn’t have a single war that made it hegemonic. Sorry this account is just fiction.

shane@feddit.nlto politics @lemmy.world•'I need a big thing!' Trump said to be considering major betrayal as Epstein distraction0·4 days agoMy understanding is that glass from the screen likely shattered and hit his ear?
In any case, a little better aim and we would have a better world.

shane@feddit.nlto politics @lemmy.world•Many West Virginians say they can’t reach their members of Congress0·5 days agoIn the fine article people were at the home of their representative.
Across the street was the house of Rep. Carol Miller, R-W.Va. The imposing brick home was darkened, the curtains were drawn. No car was visible in the driveway. But for the assembled, it was a last ditch effort to get some kind of attention from the Congresswoman.
shane@feddit.nlto World News@lemmy.world•Leaks reveal Netanyahu deliberately imposed starvation in Gaza to 'force Hamas surrender'English0·9 days agoNetanyahu is a terrible human being but an amazing politician.
In Israel all governments are coalition governments, and as Netanyahu got less and less mainstream support he tacked further and further to the right, joining with crazy religious fundamentalists because that was the only way to stay in power.
My understanding is that very shortly after losing power he will end up in court on corruption charges, and maybe die in prison. Not because of crimes against humanity, but for crimes against Israel.

shane@feddit.nltoPolitical Memes@lemmy.world•We are this close to class consciousness 🤏0·11 days agoIt helps to be aware of things the capital class does to try to divide workers.
For example any story about generation gaps.
It’s also good to support less wealthy workers when you realize that you are all workers. Join a union even if you’re well-paid and relatively safe.
Tech industry folks realizing that they are not in the capital class should be welcomed, not blocked by gatekeeping.
There’s a lot!

The Punic Wars were another step in the endless grinding of the Romans against every region bordering their territories. Yes both Carthage and atomen were expanding into each other’s sphere of influence, but I don’t agree that either side considered it a struggle for ultimate power.
