    I think that the roman intervention of Greece, led by Flaminio was totally justified, they did what they had to do. Nothing more, nothing less. Change my mind.

      Yeah, they said “at some point” and the Roman genocide in Carthage might be considered fucked up I guess.

      Didn’t they also colonize the region and over the next several centuries crucify a bunch of people? Pretty sure one of them even became a martyr for what went on to be the most destructive and enduring groups of people for all time.
