"During the event, the senior citizens got excited about voting and they danced near the bus as “Say It Loud — I’m Black and Proud” by James Brown blasted through the speakers, Evans said."
Switch one word, blah blah, same old drill. It's almost boring to say it anymore, but stuff like this is real. Perfectly okay. Nobody has a problem. But if we do the same, we're obviously hate filled terrorists. What the hell, man.
article link?
@johnnyc if you're genuinely into sieges, AJ and I have had some great Conversations about siege tactics and their uses in warfare both militarily and culturally. You're more than welcome to jump in on a chat about it some time when it comes up. I'm pretty knowledgeable on siege tactics specifically pertaining to the ancient world
It's all so tiresome. Pointing out the double standards is still useful for winning over conservatives though.
So apparently YouTube is down.
@Kingfish yeah bro i actually did a pretty big research paper on this a couple years ago. would be down to discuss sometime
"YouTube is down"

Yeah, weird. I was just about to ask on here.
I haven’t read Kerns book but I have read Ancient Siege Warfare: Persians, Greeks, Carthaginians and Romans 546–146 BC. And it's really good for understanding the evolution of siege tactics and how it went from hoarding yourself in a fort to a tactical series of defensive positioning which actually required a lot of logistical planning @johnnyc
Time to hop over to audible and spend some of those un-spent credits
@Kingfish definitely will look into that, didnt come across it in my research.
I should really look into how genghis khan handled that situation
because he must have been pretty swift and brutal about it
No thanks for correcting me, it's been over a year since I read it
Alesia was insane too
Caesar was impressive not only by being a great general and politician but it was his ability to think quickly and on his feet that people were baffled by
He was famous for being able to move unnaturally fast both physically and mentally
It actually terrified the Optimates how unnaturally swiftly he made decisions with such precision
They figured he was literally being visited by fortuna or was at the least blessed with her fortune because he was able to get himself out of anything
@Kingfish when pompey put down the slave rebellion with no help from caesar... epic
*whispers* maybe it's because we were paying so many of the taxes to begin with...

@Undercover Academic - IL Is this just because of income?
