Plato would’ve hated this post, dude.
Ironically, your "today’s decline" complaint is the same sophistic move the classics show you how to spot: the attempt to make the weaker case look strong by sounding cultured and outraged.
If you read the authors you listed, you’d know they despised this exact performative waffle.

A 19-year-old Oxford student in 1900 would have read:
— Homer
— Virgil
— Thucydides
— Xenophon
— Plato
— Aristotle
— Sophocles
— Horace
— Tacitus
— Cicero
Likely in the original Greek or Latin.
Today, many elite graduates struggle to finish a book they weren’t assigned.
Why did schools abandon the classics?

@CLT_Exam Books that teach courage, self-reliance, and will toward purpose go against the agenda of obedience to and dependence on the system. Thus, they must be censored, ignored, or revised to fit the Neo-feudal narrative.

🇬🇧 Henry Nowak, 18, "drowned in his own blood" as he lay cuffed and passed out on the street.
He was stabbed multiple times by Vikrum Digwa, 23, with an 8-inch Sikh ceremonial knife.
When the police arrived, Nowak was arrested instead, after Digwa accused him of racial abuse.

In a parallel universe, Odyssey is a masterpiece because they cast Ellen Page as Helen of Troy.

Fauci did irreparable damage to America - destroying millions of lives, stripping kids of their childhood, shuttering businesses, & costing us trillions. It’s time for accountability. He should be prosecuted and perp walked in handcuffs in front of the world.

NORWAY’S JEWISH RITUAL TRAP.
Here where i live, stands the world-famous Vigeland Sculpture Park.
Reptiles. Demons.
Children devoured alive.
Pure blasphemy.
And yes, the sculptor himself, Gustav Vigeland, had Ashkenazi-Jewish origins.

I cannot believe this is happening in Coweta County!
Family homes are being stolen all for massive data centers that the people of Coweta County don’t want to be built!!!
Are we not a free country anymore??
Wall Street Apes@WallStreetApes
The government is preparing to seize homes and land using eminent domain for the construction of a Data Center in Coweta County, Georgia This American’s childhood home is being “taken by force by Georgia Power. Homeowners in this county do not have a choice” It affects over 330 private properties. Georgia Power says it will negotiate purchases and easements and use eminent domain Georgia Power claims its to strengthen the grid for the growing energy demand in Georgia (due to many new data centers) The lines are widely linked to Project Sail, a massive proposed hyperscale data center campus that will span 829 acres

NEW: Marjorie Taylor Greene on how many in Congress know the Covid jabs have killed "hundreds of thousands" of Americans, lack of Big Pharma liability
"Probably under 40...willing to... admit... the Covid vaccine has...injured people and killed people"
"These things were bad. And they are bad. And we have to face it and say it"
"[But] people know it deep down"
"They know it. But they're not willing to face that truth"
"And the reason why is, most people are vaccinated"
"If they face that truth, they have to face the truth [of] what are the long-term side effects that I myself may face, that I took several of these Covid vaccines"
(Note: MTG did not herself get jabbed.)
"Or, what are the long-term side effects for my children that I forced to get vaccinated. Or my elderly parents"
"They have to face that truth, and the truth can be terrifying"
"It's also [about them] owning being wrong"
"These things were bad. And they are bad. And we have to face it and say it... But then that also brings the next level... and it's the one that's really stopping that from happening, and that is forcing the pharmaceutical companies to own the liability"
"And that is a wall right now that can't be penetrated"

ODYSSEY BOOK ONE: FULL EPISODE🔥 Today on Ascend: The Great Books Podcast, Dcn. Harrison Garlick is joined by Dr. Pavlos Papadopoulos of Wyoming Catholic College and Dr. Frank Grabowski of Holy Family Classical School to discuss BOOK ONE of the Odyssey--one of the greatest texts in the Western canon. Check out our NEW 12-WEEK STUDY OF THE ODYSSEY. patreon.com/posts/new-12-w… Follow Ascend on X, Youtube, Facebook, Instagram, and more! ascend-the-great-book.captivate.fm Be sure to use our WRITTEN GUIDE to the Odyssey! patreon.com/collection/165… 📚They explore why the epic opens with “man” (not rage, not a god), the meaning of polytropos (“man of twists and turns”), Telemachus’s urgent coming-of-age amid an absent father and predatory suitors, Athena’s masterful mentoring, and Zeus’ striking defense of human responsibility. 📚Along the way they illuminate Homer’s sophisticated anthropology, the poetic dialectic of Homer the philosopher, the haunting parallels with the House of Atreus, and why this ancient poem still speaks so powerfully to questions of masculinity, homecoming, virtue, and human greatness today. 📚Witty, learned, and full of “blood on the floor” interpretive energy, this conversation will leave you hungry for the next eleven weeks—and convinced that Homer is one of the greatest teachers you’ll ever encounter.

@ggreenwald AOC really did show her true colors in this, didn't she?
English
If you claim to believe that Israel is commiting a genocide in Gaza, or if you claim to believe the Iran War is a dangerous moral crime, but then refuse to work with anyone to stop it unless they have pristine left-liberal views, then you're a self-indulgent fraud.

AOC Played Y’all AOC is upset that MTG gets praise for burning her career to oppose the US-backed genocide of Palestinians because it makes her look spineless by comparison- which she is.
