For there to be an “American Homer” the answer would have to be immediately obvious to everyone, to such a degree that doubting it would immediately mark you as an eccentric. E.g the Italian Homer is Dante. So that this is even a question shows there isn’t one.
Horrors of Communism showcased:
On the left is German Jagerschnitzel. Very good comforting meal if you can get it. On the right is the Communist East German "Jagerschnitzel" made up of several slices of a giant hotdog (you got a comically sized hotdog known as State Sausage for your ration) that's deep fried. The side is box noodles with ketchup as the sauce.
Nothing shows off leftism than this shit. Instead of a home cooked meal made with love. You get food a Methhead would make in their hotel from money they got stealing copper. With the insistence they're the same and it's all subjective to add insult to injury.
@MbaGodwin5@KaramaSeal Thats what the post is saying, that SSA had independently invented ironworking, without outside help but also without first having to figure out bronze/copper
I’ll be honest on the one hand this is true on the other this is the individualist mindset of “lol fuck my coworkers they can cover for me because they suck” that is partly the reason we have absolutely no worker solidarity in this country anymore
@LesbosQuasar@KrispWithTheK DC doesnt really get snow like this anymore. Usually stays < 5°C and rainy all winter. But we also have one of the mildest climates in the country and summer heat indexes are regularly ~40°C
Homer is the original Great Man Theorist of history. He’s not telling you the Trojans lost the war because of climate change. He’s telling you the tale of Hector, Odysseus, and Achilles.
Unfortunately after hours of work, my 5 year old nephew still does not understand the Atkinson-Stiglitz Theorem (and thus I also must not understand it)
