I like the fact, that in Germany government officials are not allowed to call the Afghan war a war, because they fear, they then could get sued. Or they had the ISAF mandate and the US mandate. Often German soldiers in Afghanistan were mixed up in operations of both. I know a guy, who quit, because he was afraid, he could be sued for being part of US operations and could not understand why his superiors so willingly broke German laws. For Germans, who know some about foreign politics the US troops in Germany look more and more like imperial troops and they expand their bases. They seem to prepare for something and NATO expands closer and closer to Russia... The Russians and French are gone. But the British and US stayed. While local politicians can trick most people with the wrong argument "US troops secure German jobs" with their installations worth many billions of Dollars, when it comes to US nukes like 80 % of Germans do not want them to be in Germany and do not want Germany to be a nuclear battlefield. There is an old slogan "better red than dead". But oddly nobody of the transatlantic elite in Germany, which is in power there, listens. And again, doing work for US troops, providing them services for their illegal wars according to international laws, technically makes Germany also a war party in all these wars. But in The Hague only African war criminals get convicted. A certain Major Klein, who let US bombers kill like 150 civilians in Afghanistan, got later on General and in German trials the judges could not see him done anything wrong. Oh and the KSK, our German special forces has a massive problem with Nazis and the acronym of the intelligence group, who should stop any recruits, who do not respect the German constitution is .. MAD.
Hypnosis. That is their power. First, you must flatten their ears and work your way down their spine while moving into a definitive TAIL PULL. They will dig it. I promise.
The "Iliad" translation is by Stanley Lombardo, and is one a several good translations he did for the publisher, Hackett. I was intrigued by the cover, as were my students, And, "Iliad" is not about war. It's about the rage of Achilles, and an argument can be made that it is anti-war. I saw the cover as a comment that we're still waging war, thousands of years later.
I’m glad someone brought up how ridiculous the comparisons of Trump to Caesar are. Caesar also passed legitimate reforms that redistributed the land and wealth from the Patricians to the Plebs.
I keep trying to come up with a comparison between Trump and famous Roman figures but I always come up empty, because all of them enacted some kind of reform or did SOMETHING useful
In what way is trump not a perfect 1-for-1 modern Caesar? He has no military expertise at all, he has no political strategy beyond the room he's currently standing in, it's all so perfect. That is what America creates, why would our Caesar not reflect us? Our crossing of the Rubicon will likely just be people collectively breaking their brains in the internet and not a physical event (which is also perfect for our hollowed out digital age).
Diamonds? Pleez. Nothing says forever like a war of attrition. And while you have that fleeting image of Holy Matrimony in your head; marriage, like war, is delightful to get into and hellish to get out of. Let's take a moment to remember Vonnegut's description of our presence in Vietnam. "During the Vietnam War, every respectable artist in this country was against the war. It was like a laser beam. We were all aimed in the same direction. The power of this weapon turns out to be that of a custard pie dropped from a stepladder six feet high.”
The edition of the Iliad with the US troops on the cover is Stanley Lombardo's translation btw. He is known for translating the text in a modernized colloquial way. I believe his translation of the Odyssey has a picture of the moon landing on it.
agree on the whole - though sometimes art changes stuff, but only to people open to that and within their structural economic scope. e.g., if you are in the spectrum that watches okja, then you might quit eating meat, etc.
@@richardsawicki8521 lmao yes Avatar is basically a story about what happens to a civilization that started fucking plants & dragons somewhere down the line.
Hipsters gonna hipster. I ate a pot brownie , watched Avatar in Imax, thought it was pretty good, and then never thought about it again. To say that it still holds up as a quality film in 2020 is hilarious.

Libs at the time (like me) made fun of Bush because he had no 'exit strategy', but that was always the point.

The part about ""If the boot is off your neck, why are you going to drive for uber?" around 18:30 wound up being incredibly relevant.

Nope, to bring the troops home you need to end the political system of legalized bribery.

Of course culture can change people. Wtf
Yeah, when I watch anything new I hate liberals even more
Not really sure who was on the right side in Korea
I love Chapo, but I really don't like Avatar. I get why the boys like it, but I really think it's a pretty embarrassingly bad movie
Yeah Chapo rehabilitating Avatar was the weirdest episode of the year. I get the logic, but that movie is TRASH.
I was just disappointed we never got to see any blue twat
