In Ancient Greece, slaves were forbidden from exercising so they didn't get strong enough to revolt.
Spartan slaves were deliberately underfed and overworked to prevent rebellion
In Feudal Europe, peasants were fed bread and oats while nobles feasted on red meat.
Roman gladiators were were fed barley and beans to keep them big, but slow so they couldn't conquer their masters.

You get what's happening today right?
Yang belum tau, dia ini dosen Fisipol UGM sekaligus direktur di lembaga riset Celios. Namanya Mas Media. S2 dan S3 dari The University of Manchester. Omongannya tajem, kritis, dan selalu based on data. Tentu tidak disukai kaum-kaum boikot UI dan UGM.
You're supposed to use every unfair advantage you have. Looks, genetics, connections, dad's money, whatever.
There's nothing noble about choosing the hardest path just to feel like an underdog.

Dari 1 konten videonya aja, banyak pelajaran yang bisa kita catat.
1. 00:13 "Kita kan menyesuaikan jadwal abang"
Kalau ditanya kapan mampir, atau ketemuan dengan seseorang yang "mungkin" lebih tinggi pangkat, status sosial, atau at least kamu hormati, kamu bisa pake kata-kata ini.
2. 00:21 "Bang, saya izin laporan ke yang bersangkutan"
Ini dipake ketika ingin menyudahi percakapan atau small talk tapi dengan cara yang halus.
3. 00:27 "Assalamualaikum, shallom, namo budaya, salam kebajikan"
Konteksnya karena di dalam ada bebeberapa orang dengan berbeda keyakinan, jadi sekalian sapa dengan salam sesuai kepercayaan mereka.
4. 00:45 "Akhirnya kita kenal juga, bang Asep"
Orang itu bakal lebih senang kalau kita tau nama dia, even baru pertama kali jumpa. Bisa baca name tag seandainya kamu benar-benar have no idea siapa nama dia.
5. 01:04 "Kapolres mohon izin, terima kasih Panglima, terima kasih Kapolda"
Detail kecil tapi berarti, untuk kasi respect ke orang yang kamu hormati. Misal di kantor dibeliin pizza sama bos, nah kamu bisa pake ini. "Bos, makasih ya pizzanya. Izin saya ambil, ya."
Siap buat ngolah? 😅
Half of what men call depression is just the absence of real difficulty. We were never built for endless comfort, processed food and zero physical struggle. The body and mind need resistance to function properly. Take a depressed man, put him in a forest for three days with hard work, real food and no phone — come back and tell me he feels the same. Most modern depression is not a chemical imbalance. It is a lifestyle that is completely wrong for the animal living it.
what a privilege is it is to afford a gym, buy healthy food, pay bills, have legs that walk, eyes that see, a brain that functions, work every day, and take our bodies to their full potential.
