      The Roman Empire, which lasted about 1000 years, looking at the American Empire collapsing after 250 years:

        I can assure you the “roman” empire is still alive and kicking my friend

            it’s the same logo for the same empire numb nuts, just rebranded with better weapons

            • Nope. Other than all having a bird, they don’t have anything in common. The designs are wildly different, the first two aren’t holding weapons but rather representations of the sun, and I’m not sure WHAT the Roman one is holding, but it doesn’t look like any recognizable weapon.

              Not to mention that the regimes referenced were wildly different in most ways and rivals where overlap happened. This is “the Illuminati controls everything” level bullshit.

              My nuts are nice and responsive btw, thank you very much 😄

          The US eagle was indeed inspired by the Roman one, but that doesn’t mean it’s a continuation of that empire.

            it most certainly is friend. Rome still lives you’d be a fool to dismiss it. how can you defeat an enemy that is thought to not exist?

                  Yes. You posted a picture of past Empires that used birds as symbols, implying that’s the reason America is “the Roman Empire.” But Egypt did it first.

                    me posting a picture doesn’t mean I’m claiming that because of 1 similarity. not worth the argument you clearly have no interest in shedding what “knowledge” you’ve been forced fed. take care bro

              Yeah but the bald eagle in particular has a proclivity towards cowardice and scavenging, despite its size. Red tailed hawk or turkey is a much more admirable bird

              • Turkeys are super cool, but it’s still a bit silly to apply human values to wild animals. Pretty much all animals are wired to survive while expending the least amount of energy and reducing risk to themselves. Stealing catches from other animals is quite common across species because it’s easier and safer. The reality is that it’s brutal out there. I don’t have diminished admiration for a bear because it found some food in a trash can instead of catching fish from a stream.

      He kinda looks like Caesar there, and we all know it ended well for him
