I disagree. Nazism and Fascism are largely influential today but Caesar isn't.

I cannot vouch for your understanding. I do know Nazism and Fascism must be loudly denounced whenever found. They must not be allowed to fester in the darkness.

- TheVespasian 3y ago> Nazism and Fascism are largely influential today but Caesar isn't. Sorry, but this is when I just have to tune out. It's like when people say, "America has no culture," or something similar.
- the_af 3y agoFeel free to tune out. I find your arguments unconvincing. > It's like when people say, "America has no culture," or something similar. I do not live in the US so I couldn't care less about what people say there.
- TheVespasian 3y agoI don't know which country you live in, but it's a claim I've seen made just about everywhere. Both America and Caesar are so influential that it's difficult for people to recognize their influence. Fish in water, etc.
