You are making the US seem cool calling it The Empire

[-] yogthos@lemmy.ml 13 points 11 months ago

if you think that empires are cool then don't know what to say there

Can't be first time for you. Surely you've met people who are enthuastic about Roman Empire for example?

[-] yogthos@lemmy.ml 11 points 11 months ago

these people invariably fall on the fascist end of the political spectrum

[-] Kusimulkku@lemm.ee 5 points 11 months ago

Have you actually met these people in real life?

[-] yogthos@lemmy.ml 7 points 11 months ago

lots

I somehow doubt it... Being enthuastic about Roman history is just really common. Thinking they're all fascists is peak Lemmy lol.
