On ne dirait jamais assez que la personne qui a eu pour la première fois l'idée de basculer les notes de bas de page en fin d'ouvrage mérite une combinaison des différents enfers qui existent dans toutes les religions traditionelles

"What jealous and relentless avenging demons have made a riotous assault upon you in wild revel?"
Niketas Choniates, eyewitness of the Fall of Constantinople by the Crusaders and Venetians, left us a compelling narration of the events before, during and after the devastating attack. Shocked from the events he doubts about his devotion to write the story of them:
“…how then can I devote the very best thing and the most beautiful invention of the Hellenes - history - to the recounting of barbarian deeds against Hellenes?
πῶς ἂν ἔγωγε εἴην τὸ βέλτιστον χρῆμα, τὴν ἱστορίαν, καὶ κάλλιστον εὕρημα τῶν Ἑλλήνων βαρβαρικαῖς καθ’ Ἑλλήνων πράξεσι χαριζόμενος”
But his “Chronike Diegesis” became one of the masterpieces of byzantine Greek historiography, a piece of which below laments the fate of the Polis:
“O City, City, eye of all cities, universal boast, supramundane wonder, wet nurse of churches, leader of the faith, guide of Orthodoxy, beloved topic of orations, the abode of every good thing! O City, that hast drunk at the hand of the Lord the cup of his fury! O City, consumed by a fire far more drastic than the fire which of old fell upon the Pentapolis!" "What shall I testify to thee? What shall I compare to thee? The cup of thy destruction is magnified," says Jeremias, who was given to tears as he lamented over ancient Sion. What malevolent powers have desired to have you and taken you to be sifted?
What jealous and relentless avenging demons have made a riotous assault upon you in wild revel? If these implacable and crazed suitors neither fashioned a bridal chamber for thee, nor lit a nuptial torch for thee, did they not, however, ignite the coals of destruction?
O prolific City, once garbed in royal silk and purple and now filthy and squalid and heir to many evils, having need of true children! O City, formerly enthroned on high, striding far and wide, magnificent in comeliness and more becoming in stature ; now thy luxurious garments and elegant royal veils are rent and torn; thy flashing eye has grown dark, and thou art like unto an aged furnace woman all covered with soot, and thy formerly glistening and delightful countenance is now furrowed by loose wrinkles. I shall forego describing those who set words to the
music of the lyre and sang of thy calamities and, drunk with wine, turned thy tragedy into a comedy, making a profession out of the farcical recitation
of thine afflictions: blows struck with the fist and the foot, bruises, moreover, and black eyes inflicted upon thee every hour of the day; for by God's will thou hast provoked to jealousy the foolish nations, or
rather, those people who are not truly nations but obscure and scattered tribes, and if thou didst not give birth to the majority of them, thou didst, however, raise them up and provide them with the fat of wheat…”

At St. Marks’s Basilica in Venice there is a porphyry statue of the Four Tetrarchs looted from Constantinople in 1204, surrounded by marble spolia. There is a white fragment on the bottom right of the purple statue, a piece of which was found in Istanbul in the 20th century!

Another unfortunate event was the burning of the manuscripts from the library in the Nasrid madrasah of Granada, Spain in 1499. At least 5000 manuscripts (except books related to medicine) were burned in a public square.
This was ordered by Francisco Jiménez de Cisneros who is also responsible for the forced mass conversion of Muslims in Spain. Later in 1509, when Spanish forces entered Oran, Algeria, he ordered the burning of its books as well.

Don't think thats true but speaking of lost knowledge, the House of Wisdom in Baghdad (its grand library) was brutally destroyed by the Mongols, some accounts say they threw so many books in the river that they formed a bridge that could support a man on horseback and some say the river ran red with blood and black with ink Now that is something to ponder upon

South Africa won’t allow Starlink to be licensed, even though I was BORN THERE, simply because I am not Black!
We were offered many times the opportunity to bribe our way to a license by pretending that a Black guy runs Starlink SA, but I have refused to do so on principle.
Racism should not be rewarded no matter to which race it is applied.
Shame on the racist politicians in South Africa. They should be shown no respect whatsoever anywhere in the world and shunned for being unashamedly RACISTS!

Why Elon Musk is RIGHT to fight South Africa’s racist rules blocking Starlink? Imagine this: Long ago, South Africa had very unfair laws called apartheid. They treated Black people badly and kept them from good jobs and money. When those bad laws ended, the country made new rules (called B-BBEE) to help Black people get a fair share of business. The idea was good – like a big helping hand. But now? For companies like Starlink to sell fast internet, they MUST give away 30% of their business to Black partners. Just because of skin color. Elon Musk was born in South Africa. He left as a teen to chase big dreams. Today, his company SpaceX wants to bring Starlink – super fast satellite internet – to South Africa. But the rules say no unless they give up part of the company. Elon said it right: “Starlink is not allowed because I’m not Black.” SpaceX promised to spend about $30 million (that’s 500 million rand!) to give FREE high-speed internet to 5,000 rural schools. That helps over 2.4 MILLION kids every year learn better, get jobs later, and have a brighter future. Real help for the people who need it most! Starlink already works in about 24 other African countries. Villages there now have internet for school, doctors, and business. South Africa’s villages are missing out because of these racist rules. Elon isn’t asking for special favors. He just wants fair play so Starlink can connect everyone fast. Internet = education, jobs, hope. Why hold back millions of kids over rules that pick by race and color?

Falih Rıfkı Atay Yahya Kemal Beyatlı'yı anılarında şöyle anlatıyor:
"Ben yere kapanarak Atatürk'ün ayağını öpen tek adam hatırlarım Yahya Kemal! Bursa'da ilk rastlayışımda öpmüştür. Acaba Anadolu'ya gitmek üzere kendisine yollanan para ile, Eskişehir bozgunu üzerine paniğe uğrayarak Bulgaristan'a gitmiş olduğunu unutturmak için mi idi?"

To był ostatni film jaki widziałem, w którym młody chłopiec nauczył się czegoś od mężczyzny.
W którym kobieta musiała stać się silną postacią, a swoich mocy nie uzyskała za fakt bycia kobietą.
W którym "dobro" musi ZABIĆ zło, zamiast je rozumieć i wykazać się empatią.
W którym bohater nie odpuścił ani na chwilę, cel był jasny, a koszt nie grał roli.
W którym przemoc jest związana nierozerwalnie z instynktem przetrwania.
Nie ma już takiego kina, które inspiruje, skłania do refleksji, daje wzorce i kształtuje mężczyzn. Jest tylko nijakość, ideologiczna breja i spłycanie wszystkiego.
