        I just thought it was funny that for a Roman historian such as yourself, the comic highlighted thinkers from the 16th, 17th, 18th, 19th centuries … jumps over to a Greek and completely skipped over the entire Roman era.

          Oh, that’s the terrible part about me - I’m horribly lazy. I just share what I find elsewhere, very rarely do I MAKE memes! XD

          To be fair, Roman philosophy is… less than robust, lmao. The best two Roman philosophers (Marcus Aurelius and Musonius Rufus) are both very orthodox Stoics in the Greek tradition.
