Can someone please explain to me what the thought process is behind having a statue as your profile pic? What exactly are they trying to get across here?

What exactly are they trying to get across here?

"I have extremely stupid views about contemporary politics based on my deep and extensive misunderstanding of the Roman empire."

based on my deep and extensive misunderstanding of the Roman empire.”

TBF I very rarely encounter people without that. Usually those loving antique literature and the accompanying knowledge is just a side effect.

Yeah, it's got so much popular mythology built up around it that virtually nobody has an actually good concept of what it looked like. That's true of a lot of historical periods, but because crypto-fascists like the Roman aesthetic so much, you just tend to see this one more. Most actual classicists aren't hanging out on Roman statue Twitter.

zero historical materialism

The white marble of the statue is beautiful. Thus whiteness is beautiful. It is a call back to good old fashioned British rascism. They see modern rascism as too ugly want the good stuff back. It is a weird way too online ideology

No good evidence it is conscious either lol. Hate this dumb logic people use. That which can be stated without evidence can be dismissed without evidence

Abrahamic Deus: homophobic, warlike, misogynist, racist, nationalist, child-killer, can't even save you from curable disease, will torture His own most loyal subjects out of paranoid jealousy ('testing their faith'), either intentionally created Satan to plague mortals or allowed him to come into existence through lack of oversight

The Sun: life-sustaining, allows for vision, created all or most heavy elements in the solar system, sustains planetary gravity and solar system structure, will never call you slurs or ask you to sacrifice your child

Is it just me or is this image flashing a little bit. I don't know, I'm getting some flashes around the sun. Probably something to do with the colour of it. Promise I'm fully sober lol.

[–] fox@hexbear.net 8 points 2 years ago

It's that optical illusion with a color dot that will make a grey scale image colored.

I’d be happy to believe that the sun is conscious, but there’s no way it wants to or is even capable of communicating with an ant living on a pebble a trillion miles away.

[–] Saeculum@hexbear.net 6 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Sun's only about ~100 million miles away.

[–] EnsignRedshirt@hexbear.net 6 points 2 years ago

And yet the sun still won’t return my texts sadness

[–] privatized_sun@hexbear.net 7 points 2 years ago

liberals are not conscious and its pointless to communicate with them
