> [@Robot\_Arm](#): > > I read something interesting once about fraternity hazing. Everyone hates it when they go through it, but many of those same people are perfectly willing to do it to others a few years later when they’re the ones in charge. The theory is that, having gone through the pain and/or humiliation to gain entry to a fraternity, they don’t want to grant that entry to anyone else who hasn’t “earned” it. That seemed to be much of the argument in opposition to tuition debt relief. ---

> [@Euphonious\_Polemic](#): > > After Iran laughs at Trump’s bullshit “settlement is near” crapola? Somewhere recently (I thought it was on Daily Kos, but I can’t find it) someone counted up the number of times Trump has claimed a settlement is near. They found 39. That doesn’t count anything in the last day or two. ---

It reminds me of this scene in HBO’s Rome, when Vorenus is made evocati. They’re not at all shy about making it clear that their goal, as Romans, is to enslave the whole world.

If they didn’t want to be slaves all they had to do was defeat the Romans in battle. ---
