@Ayran_Enjoyer Not Roman not Greek , not catholic not even Byzantine. Hagia Sophia is a place for the whole world our inner being.

The greatest irony in modern Greek nationalism is that its supporters keep trying to claim an empire that spent 1,000 years insisting it was not Greek.
The so-called “Byzantine Empire” never called itself Byzantine. It called itself the Roman Empire.
Its people called themselves Romans (Romaioi).
Its emperors called themselves Roman Emperors.
Its laws were Roman law.
Its state was the direct continuation of Rome.
Even the word “Hellene” was avoided for centuries because it was associated with paganism.
Yes, the empire spoke Greek. It used Greek literature. It was culturally Hellenized.
But speaking Greek did not make someone Greek any more than speaking English makes an Indian, Nigerian, or Australian English.
If you walked into Constantinople in the year 1000 and called the emperor “Greek,” he would have corrected you immediately:
“I am Roman.”
The Byzantine Empire was not a Greek state that happened to inherit Rome.
It was the Roman Empire that happened to speak Greek.
Modern Greeks inherited part of its culture and language, but they did not create it, rule all of it, or define its identity.
For a thousand years the empire itself settled the question.
It called itself Rome.

The UK economy basically works like this:
Get paid £2,000.
Give £900 to a landlord. Give £200 to the council. Give £150 to energy companies. Give £300 to supermarkets. Give £300 to car insurance and fuel.
Spend the rest surviving until next payday.
Then get lectured by someone who bought their house for £37,000 in 1988 about how you need to stop buying coffees and cancel subscriptions.

@LeGreatOverMan Goyim and barbarian is the same thing. Those who can’t speak Hebrew and those who can’t speak Greek, Jewish and Greek heritage are the foundation of the world

@PositiviveFeed_ @CharlieKirk4evr I’m a straight man but I belevie this boy. Look like he’s interrogating him like a cia agent. The classic way of a cia you ate the cookies John Kyriakou said. How to manipulate your competitor, and I think as long Charlie believes in hell He’s already there created for himself

@CharlieKirk4evr Pressing him like an FBI Agent, even if he had reported nothing would have happened. I strongly believe him and this is why he didn’t report it.

Watch this student’s wild accusation completely fall apart in real-time! 🚨 During a Turning Point USA event, a student claims a group of Trump supporters yelled racial slurs and threatened them with sexual assault. But when Charlie Kirk asks for a police report, witnesses, or security footage, the student admits they have zero proof and never reported it! 🤯 Kirk immediately calls out the story as a massive lie, comparing the student to Jussie Smollett. To prove his point, Kirk offers to bring in the FBI and the Department of Education to investigate, causing the student to immediately backtrack! 📉 Do you agree that false accusations should be treated as serious crimes? 👇

Time to get that volcano lair I’ve always wanted.
I think it’s in the “Beyond” section of BB&B.
