In all seriousness, was there any society more ridiculously decadent

Nah honestly we've not quite reached public orgy levels yet

>>831808
>What is pornography.
Besides tales of Roman decadence are hyped up by Medieval Christendom or Roman Historians shit-smearing Emperors. You're talking of a culture that the fucking Greeks considered uptight.

>>831808
>public orgy

orgy just mean getting drunk and shit, it has nothing to do with our modern meaning.

God why is /pol/ full of so many crusader-LARPers?

Shut the fuck up

All the bullshit about wild public orgies and trannies and whatever the fuck was made up by christians to demonize the pagan romans

The Romans made the EXACT SAME accusations against the early christians about "degeneracy"

They learned vikings weren't so cool so they latched onto the next "classy" and "manly" thing

>implying this doesn't happen in any multi-national empire with a thriving slave trade
News flash: when people want to fuck, they're going to fuck whatever's around.

Every civilisation becomes degenerate of their own founding principles. Degeneracy is not merely the concept of the context of doing so called "decadent" things, it is a system and mindset which subverts of "degenerates" the founding the principles of said civilisation.

Every civilisation degenerates over time, what you take to be decadence is entirely up to your own little subjective head.

The average well off person in 'merica is raised with pretty Christian values, even if many don't really follow them. The average well off person during the good times of Rome took morals somewhat seriously but had no concept of sin as we define it now. The shit they did to get off was insane. Look into it lol it's pretty amazing haha

>>831853
Now i see. Thanks wise anon

I don't think the Greeks considering Romans uptight proves much. The Greeks weren't exactly ascetics.

The left wing equates white men with oppression because this demographic is conspicuous in history, typically anglos and middle classes and above.

So someone grows up with a single mother or witnesses divorce, most of their teachers are female, most of their class are females and minorities, all of them hold this view to a degree. Come the high school popularity contest it is only socially acceptable for them to join some kind of hip hop bro subculture, if they follow their own tastes and interests they are branded "nerds". When they leave high school they discover adults are just as petty.

It is no mystery to me what is happening here.

I fail to see your point.

>/his/ seriously uses word like decadent, degenerate and decline unironically unlike actual historical discourse

This fucking board.

yeah, your dislike of hip-hop was totally the reason that you were Nigel no friends

The Romans were mostly prudes.

Most of the stories that people think of Romans being degenerates were created by political opponents.

The Hippies in America and the French nobles by the end of monarchy were degenerate, I think. Western society is pretty bad right now with hook up culture and all that.
