@willmenaker @jwordfish @TheDougFiles It ruled when he was cowering behind that pillar yelling at other dudes to get the spears and shields.

@Q_Review Maybe, I just think the effect looks kinda shit and sucks up attention in a really detailed scene. All the videos make it sound really loud to, changing the vibes a lot

[Caleb Guenther @GuentherCaleb]

@RealiaAmelia I shit you not these are the breakdowns

[Caleb Guenther @GuentherCaleb]

@RealiaAmelia Yes but there’s a difference between a us history class framed by state history and the new Texas standards where every history class up till high school has to tie back to Texas history some way including world history with ancient Texas being mentioned

[Caleb Guenther @GuentherCaleb]

@ShinMarginalScr It’s also just clear that people don’t understand the difference between a nation state and a state in general, though that really just speaks to how universal nationalism has become

[Caleb Guenther @GuentherCaleb]

@sp6runderrated Counterpoint to that

[Caleb Guenther @GuentherCaleb]

@SketchesbyBoze It really feels like all of society, especially since Covid, has been taken over by the idiots who never matured past high school and are still big mad the teacher made them read Hamlet or learn about anything that happened before 2000 that wasn’t pop culture related.

[Caleb Guenther @GuentherCaleb]

@BenLovett10 @ragefighthouse History teacher from America so grain of salt and all, but teaching an academically mixed “on-level” world history class has fully brought me to believing we need remedial level history.

[Caleb Guenther @GuentherCaleb]

@Cuneyt_S_Sevi Not sure the political economy of the fire nation is developed enough for a Marx to theorize about. What even are the commodities of that world. Apart from the military everything still feels firmly pre-industrial

[Caleb Guenther @GuentherCaleb]

@diahectics @TheAgentNDN I especially loved later in the book when he covers how European imperialists being incredulous that native farmers didn’t naturally want maximize profits and had to be forced to grow cash crops for market at gun point

[Caleb Guenther @GuentherCaleb]

@TheAgentNDN It is an absolute fucking unit though

[Caleb Guenther @GuentherCaleb]

@TheAgentNDN Great recent book examining Capitalism as a historically contingent and developing force.

@srnorty @repmythos @aakashgupta The point isn’t that remarkable people and stories didn’t happen but that 90% of people who have lived were not kings but peasants. Any simulation has to sacrifice a lot of “accuracy” or start you at a certain level of privilege to be fun. Either way is a historical compromise.

@MikeyNohMore Seriously though the vast majority of tv both past and present has been cheep, corny or overacted. CW should be the baseline for assumptions not HBO. When you add on the fact that the source material itself is pretty corny, this is probably the best case result.

[Caleb Guenther @GuentherCaleb]

@MikeyNohMore Lotta people clearly haven’t seen Dr Who and it shows

[Caleb Guenther @GuentherCaleb]

@ettingermentum The Talarico Crusader States and the Mamdani Caliphate will be launching a historic joint assault against the rapidly declining Byzantine Emperor

[Caleb Guenther @GuentherCaleb]

@Srirachachau Not a theme park but I got the same vibe from the renn fest documentary guy. An autistic, artistically inclined, business tyrant. Don’t make those types of guys CEOs anymore. Explains a lot of Disney current decline honestly
