Γνωρίζατε ότι η ελληνική βασιλική οικογένεια συνδέεται γενεαλογικά με την ένδοξη δυναστεία των Κομνηνών της Βυζαντινής Αυτοκρατορίας; Από τον Αλέξιο Α΄ Κομνηνό έως τον Γεώργιο Α΄ της Ελλάδας, ένας εντυπωσιακός δεσμός ιστορίας και παράδοσης. 🇬🇷👑 #ΒασιλικήΟικογένεια

I was five years old on 9/11, I don't recall that tragic day.

I had never experienced a national tragedy until the events of Black Sabbath, October 7th. 2023.

So what is a national tragedy? How is it different from personal tragedy, & how do I find hope in these dark days?

The idea of happiness that has become dominant since the eighteenth century is completely different from the traditional idea of “beatitude”, which indicates a correct relationship with being.

Just finished reading The Picture of Dorian Gray—unexpectedly beautiful read! It's not just a story of vanity, but a powerful lesson on conservatism, where virtue truly means beauty. Every conservative should delve into this masterpiece and explore its timeless insights.

@HorcherF I have had a 'tradition' for the last 4-5 years to read T.S. Eliot's 'Tradition and the Individual Talent' on the 1st of January. Every time, I discover something new to reflect on while starting my year with a demanding and qualitative essay.

“Where men are forbidden to honour a king they honour millionaires, athletes, or film-stars instead: even famous prostitutes or gangsters. For spiritual nature, like bodily nature, will be served; deny it food and it will gobble poison.”

@AlbertBikaj As a classicist, it is a shame that I haven't had the opportunity to read enough Cicero until now. On the other hand, how much Cicero can be considered enough?

[Demetrios | Conservative Philosopher @ConservantRight]

@AlbertBikaj @EdithHarxhi @nikedhi95 Congratulations!

[Demetrios | Conservative Philosopher @ConservantRight]

@HorcherF This separation goes against the very idea of conservatism: the cooperation between generations. The younger generation learns from the wisdom of the older, while the older gradually encourages the younger to take over responsibilities... CPC is a vivid example of that.

@AlbertBikaj @PhiloCasey Indeed, it's a brilliant book. I read it in one evening. It was like reading a prophecy for our era written many decades ago!

"The Left is united by hatred, but we are united by love: love of our country, love of institutions, love of the law, love of family, & so on... what makes us conservatives is the desire to protect those things, & we're up against people who want to destroy them."

Roger Scruton
