I like history. I don't hate the people of history. Does that mean I agree with them on everything Of course not.

Aside from being premier mercenaries in Italy and Europe from 1020s-40s in 1040s the Normans won three battles against the byzantine greeks two with Harald Hardrada opposing them with the Varangian Guard. They defeated the Pope's army at Civitate. They conquered England at Hastings. They defeated several muslim armies in Italy and Sicily most notably at Cerami.

"I used to think like you guys until I dove a bit deeper into his biography. He risked his life several times if not many times in the Revolutionary War even leading charges to take fortified positions. He fought for his right to do what he thought was right. I may disagree (I'm less certain of that now) but he is absolved of knowing the future imo because he put his life on the line and fought to bend the future to his will.

"Likewise Normans in Sicily began as mercenaries. They were so good at killing people that there would often end up being Normans on both sides of a conflict. Normans on the winning side would help any captured Normans on the losing side secure an easier release/ransom.

"I found this to be refreshing about the Duelling Stories audiobook. Two men had a conflict over something and a duel allowed them to settle the question with a clarity that is sorely lacking in modernity. War or any open conflict between two defined parties for all its drawbacks brings both clarity and (usually) a decisive answer to central questions. Both are essential in human societies; thus conflict is often good. This crucial truth is denied in our hyper-feminized age.

Two men had a conflict over something and a duel allowed them to settle the question with a clarity that is sorely lacking in modernity.

"Ask for medieval names. Every third comment: "Julius" "Marcus Aurelius" "Augustus" "Octavian" "Constantine" Gotta give ancient Rome credit for its ironclad hold on the modern imagination. Why do you think Rome is so much more popular than the glorious thousand years 500-1500 We are having our second son soon. What medieval-inspired name should I name the future conquering emperor of the American Empire Any ideas https://t.co/z0vt1Mdxb8 We are having our second son soon.

"This is one of the big reasons I love medieval history. There are no heroes-for a thousand years-who are theorycels. Medieval history is not a call to think it is a call to act.🧵 Great Books will not save us. I have spent enough time around these programs to become suspicious.

"I think this is one reason why medieval history is not so popular as Roman or Greek. Ancient philosophers can convince you that you are building on their legacy or somehow doing something by reading them. Or expanding on their thoughts. Medieval history makes no such promise"
