Do you know how many slaves were black in the Roman empire? More than had American accents I assure you.
None of them spoke English either.
In the Western Mediterranean? Most likely diminishingly few. It’s hard to imagine why would that might not had been the case.
There were black Roman soldiers posted on Hadrian's Wall in the north of England.
Traveling large distances was expensive and dangerous and fairly rare outside of a few professions. Soldiers being one of them so to an extent that’s feasible
> including importing their slaves
Why would you import someone from Nubia to Western Europe when you have a relatively ample supply of barbarians being trafficked across the border and there is a significant demand for slaves in Egypt and other provinces nearby.
I mean technically you could run into a Black African somewhere in the Roman Empire but outside of exceptional circumstances that would be almost as likely as winning a lottery
You don't know what's historically accurate. You don't understand why there was a black community in Rome. You don't know why there was one in 17th century London. But you still think you know better than me bubba.
Thank you for confirming my suspicions!
That's rich from a guy who also tell someone they don't know that they are "obsessed with Musk". You are so full of it, and too stupid to even notice everyone here see you for the laughing stock you are.
It is a fact that you have no idea whether you know more than me, but you affirm it with no foundation because you have no integrity.
Ladies and gentlemen, I present to you: the elephant telling someone else their ears are big.
Unfortunately, your parents didn't really put that much time into you and it shows.
You said something that is a beginner's mistake (and it is objectively incorrect, your interlocutor even invites you to try to prove otherwise, that's how confident they are you will not be able to do so because it is simply not true). Based on that, your interlocutor just said "I know better than you". Not because they invented it, but because you gave them all the indications that it is true by making beginner's mistakes.
So, no, they don't "have no idea": they saw you struggling with basic elements that people who know this subject have already acquired.
Funnily enough, you genuinely have no idea of what their parents have done, and yet you don't hesitate to do exactly what you pretend is so shameful. You don't make any sense. Honestly, just take one step back and stop being so angry. Just breathe, stop being so emotional and think a little bit. You don't have to apologize or lose face, you can just stop writing answer (stop digging your own hole) and do better next time.
But, hey, we know you just try to convince yourself. Sorry if 4 paragraphs is a bit too much for you to follow.
And no, four paragraphs aren't too much much for me to follow. Your mom writes a lot more than that to me every day and I have no problem there.
You may save face by stop responding, but you may not be mature enough for that and need an excuse to convince yourself you are not pathetic. So, because I feel sorry for you, I will just let you send the last message. Of course, you will insult me, or use a pathetic argument that barely make illusion, or do whatever you need to convince yourself you saved face (I recommend "no, it's you who is pathetic", it's a classic). Everyone here know how ridiculous you made yourself look during this discussion. Even yourself, deep down. I know you will answer it's not true, but we both know it is the case. But don't worry, let's just agree that you are perfectly right when you say that you are not upset, that you are clearly the person here that everyone admire, and that you totally owned me with your clever arguments *wink wink*.
....But not more entertaining than your mom.
Says he doesn't care; proceeds to get triggered by my comments.
Can't properly capitalize, but takes time to use a semi-colon.
Boy, you really know how to prioritize.
As your stepfather, I am disappointed cauch. I'm going to have to ask you to move out of the basement.
Let me help you more:
Oh, no, complianceowll, you totally destroyed me by attacking my lack of capitalization and the huuuuge amount of time I needed to use a semi-colon. And yes, me calling you "little boy" or answering your comments is the proof I'm a loser, while when you do exactly the same, it's the proof you are soooo smart. Oh, I have sooooo much eggs on my face. You got me good. And you are my daddy now. Oh my, the strategy of pretending to have sex with my mother is famously so advanced and mature and always work. You won. You are totally the smartest people in the world. And everyone here also knows that you won but in fact you did not care at all. Also, I don't know how to write pasghetti, don't forget to use that in your next message.
(ps: and the fact that you end up with "and in hollywood, they depicted a roman army that was not entirely Rome-inhabitant-looking, so it is the proof that it's "wokeness" seems to also illustrate that indeed you have assimilated the misconception yourself)
I'm laughing so hard right now. You resoundingly do care about Musk; you're obsessed with him.
Second, who said anything about me alleging that "they depicted a roman army that was no entirely Rome-inhabitant looking"? Those are your words not mine, and if anyone is looking for the king of strawman arguments, we have a winner with you.
Rome was a very ethnically diverse place, including the demographics of its slaves, contrary to America's slaves.
The only thing I said was that they recast the Gladiator as black, not being true to the original MOVIE character. If you didn't understand that, the solution is not to put words in people's mouth. The solution is to work on your reading comprehension.
"Care for" doesn't mean the same thing about "care about"; "I don't care for" means "I dislike", perhaps with a certain degree of implied contempt.
I love those self-defeating argument, it's still a mystery how people don't realise how stupid they look. You know that I know better than you how much I care about Musk, right? You are trying to convince me that something that I can observe, as a fact, to be totally wrong, is in fact true. You realise that all you do is confess that you are unable to conceive that something that you have made up may not be true.
Ok, ok, let me try. complianceowll, you are a little dog called Popo. You say it's not the case, you say you are not a little dog, but I'm laughing so hard right now, because you resoundingly are a dog, you are named Popo. See, I'm so smart, you cannot hide the truth from me.
Did it work? Did you believe to be a little dog (because you are)? No? Well, guess what, similarly, I still don't believe I'm obsessed with Musk. But I do believe, based on that proof, that your opinions are worth nothing, because they are the result of someone who not only is convinced of something false, but also believe that they can convince someone who see it's not true that it is true. Silly little dog.
