If WW3 comes around, and this time Germany gets wiped off the face of the map- honestly, I can’t claim I’d be overly saddened about it at this point. For the innocent Germans yes, but the country honestly has it coming. Time and time again, they never learn; perhaps Morgenthau had it right after all. Perhaps all of the west needs either a decolonization (for those stolen lands with disenfranchised indigenous peoples) or a series of Morgenthau plans writ large. If this leads up to WW3, from whatever ashes remain, I think it’ll have to be the interest of the entire non-western world to ensure exactly that.
Ancient Greeks and Romans (as this guy clearly idealizes, considering the pfp) were dandy as fuck, tbh. Gay (or bi) as fuck, too. They liked their masculinity, and they fetishized it arguably a whole lot more than femininity, with predictable (sexual) results.
The “ancient times” this guy so loves, never existed outside his mind- or perhaps they did, but not with the “ancient Romans/Greeks/most ancient ‘civilized’ folk.” The notions of “masculinity” he subscribes to, in fact, would probably have seen this guy derided (accurately in this case) as a “barbarian…”
This guy’s notions of masculinity are not only inspired by, if not wholly formed from the “barbarian” asscrack of Eurasia (western and northwestern Europe, though I’d call the genuine barbarism of the west a more recent thing, a product of 500 years of unparalleled barbaric behavior, perhaps much more considering the Crusades, both northern and southern) as the ancient civilizations saw it- but they’re inspired by the rot that festered in that asscrack following Christianization, the collapse of the Roman Empire at the hands of “barbarians,” and the gradual abandonment of much of the actual merits of that time (hygiene and sanitation, for instance).
