Rough Roman Memes

779 readers

A place to meme about the glorious ROMAN EMPIRE (and Roman Republic, and Roman Kingdom)! Byzantines tolerated! The HRE is not.

RULES:

  1. No racism, sexism, homophobia, transphobia, bigotry, etc. The past may be bigoted, but we are not.

  2. Memes must be Rome-related, not just the title. It can be about Rome, or using Roman aesthetics, or both, but the meme itself needs to have Roman themes.

  3. Follow Lemmy.world rules.

Not sure where to start on Roman history?

I mean, he's objectively wrong. Objective facts exist objectively. Jupiter had rings and 95 moons long before anyone ever knew either fact. The moon had ice long before anyone ever knew that. Mt. Erebus was a volcano in the Antarctic long before anyone stepped foot in the Antarctic.

The external universe literally exists; and so do facts.

Except the number of Jupiter moons may not have always been the same so the current number is a point in time perspective.

Plus we may not have discovered them all yet. ;)

But those undiscovered moons exist nonetheless, if they do

Jupiter has a static number of moons in every time frame from every perspective.

How many depends when you ask, but the above statement is an objective truth.
