Roman Gladiators. They were enslaved, but considering they went into an arena to fight to the death, made hints at some form of bravery.
con·text ( P ) Pronunciation Key (kntkst)You are a fucking idiot. Gladiators BEGAN as slaves. But towards the later years of the empire, many fought for a career. Many Roman citizens became gladiators of their own will.
n.
The part of a text or statement that surrounds a particular word or passage and determines its meaning.
Moron, do you know what context is? In the context of your original quote the subject matter was those gladiators that were enslaved, not those that chose it as a profession. This ties back to your original quote about how to enslave a populous. Can you keep a solid string of thought? As in you make an assertion and build your argument off of it? Apparently not. All you were able to do is show your "superior" knowledge and give yourself a masturbatory pat on the back for knowing about gladiators. You didnt respond to any points of my argument at all, all you did was post more dribble that makes no sense. Miss a dose of ritalin?
We're talking about political response and knowledge, not academic performance, dipshit. See above about not being able to create a coherent thought in your head.Europeans being dumber than Americans, or equivalently dumb. Somehow your opinion here, should meet with recent comparisons of academic level between European students, and American ones.
Speaking of incoherent, what the fuck are you trying to say here? Ive had to read it 5 or 6 times so far, and what I can decipher is that youre implying that American kids are ignorant, self important pricks. If you are, I have an old saying for you. Pot calling the kettle black?Blanket statement holding true, much to your chagrin I'm sure. American kids lost the living shit out of this comparison. They did however win when it came to being ignorant, self important pricks, with illusions of grandeur.
English motherfucker, do you speak it?
YOU LOSE. The entire foundation for EVERYTHING is that YOUR COUNTRY IS BETTER THAN OURS. Therefore if you assume that all americans are a direct reflection of our country, then you are a direct reflection of yours. Which means since your country is "no better than America" then you have no platform of superiority to speak from. Let me help you here, you are not a shining beacon of all that is holy and righteous in the world. Rather you're just a waste of space that thinks you're something special.My home country will remain un named here, but I hardly contend it is better than America. Quite the opposite. I'd wager a guess they are even closer to stupid apes as a whole. Any country whose leader is proud that "love of god" guides his actions, needs to re-evaluate itself.
per·ti·nent ( P ) Pronunciation Key (pûrtn-nt)Want to hear about frenzy and mob mentality? How about the time that a radio show caused mass panic in New York City? This is an exact example of the mass idiocy, that many Americans still pretend they do not participate in

Read and weep. This shit DID happen.
adj.
Having logical precise relevance to the matter at hand.
Your example is not pertinent.
Several things. When did this happen? 1938. What year is it today? 2004. To use this as an example of the mob mentality is fine, to say that it shows US mob mentality is false. Radio was a new media that was exploited and as a result this happened. It has nothing to do with Politics at all, and thus holds no weight in this argument.
My example of Madrid is more pertinent because it is about political response to external stimuli, and its about a European country. You lose again.
Ok, since the infrastructure of my country makes me a bad person....Far as your opinion of me. Have it and keep it. I think you are merely loathing to admit just how fucked up yourself, and this country are, where insurance companies are assumed to be victims of those who get hurt and then require medical assistance.
Where in many states welfare is privatized.
Also
I called you out on it earlier. You know I'm right, so you just try and run away.All you're trying to do is develop an elitist platform for yourself so that when you get thrashed by one of us "inferior" Americans then you can cower behind that protective veil and promptly reply "But im European" then thumb your nose. Did I mention this platform just makes you look like a jabbering idiot?
As stated above me. You're voting in this years election. So you in turn advocate everything that we do. You're what we like to call aA country whose peoples' over-all grasp of history is poor enough, that they actually believe they "liberated" and "saved" people in Iraq and Afghanistan. The same people, who suffered because, actions of your leaders from the past were filled with idiocy. The same leaders whose incompetence allowed seeds of the terrorism which the world now suffers to be planted.
hypocrite
n : a person who professes beliefs and opinions that they do not hold
Therefore the only way you can live to your beliefs is to not vote. Therefore you become worse than an uneducated voter, but rather an apathetic one.
Eat it fucko.
