The governor of western Russia's Kaliningrad region blamed the 18th-century German enlightenment philosopher Immanuel Kant for the outbreak of war in Ukraine. “He is directly related to the military conflict in Ukraine,” Anton Alikhanov, who governs the western exclave of Kaliningrad, said Friday at a local political science forum.

Once upon a time, fish left the water. This event was later deemed the root cause for all wars.

In the beginning the Universe was created. This had made many people very angry and has been widely regarded as a bad move.

Don't mess with Plato, apart from being a philosopher, he was a competitive wrestler who would occasionally threaten to beat up people who disagreed with him.
