>needs a citation
>he doesn't know basic world history

>Rome fell because

maybe you should mention immigration.

it was quite stupid to leave the military to germanic foederatii.

>lead posining in water supply

I highly doubt romans knew or cared about that

Well for starters your opinion is not "basic world history"


And aren't we discussing Roman history?

>germanic
Yeah but notice how immigration was only a problem because Germans were the ones coming in, aka nazis

>Roman history isn't a big part of world history

Are you sayin flint Michigan be Romans and sheeeit?

More like Rome fell because they let in Refugees, the Barbarian Hordes gained a foothold from which the Western Empire could never recover.

>Religious intolerance following embrace of Christianity
>This is what people actually believe.

Daily reminder your opinion is not an argument. And Facebook opinions also aren't arguments.

This is what people actually believe because it's true

Face it bigot, Rome fell because of religious intolerance, just like Nazi Germany, and just like America is right now

"Not an argument" is not an argument

>bad times creates great men
>great men create great times
>Great times create weak men
>Weak men creates bad times

This explains the rise and fall of every great civilization

platitudes

Before the empire embraced Christianity it oppressed Christians. After it embraced Christianity it oppressed non Christians.

Nothing fucking changed.

>Nothing changed
Except it became Christian. Then it fell

>yiffmaster

Goddamn it.

>a problem because Germans were the ones coming in, aka nazis

Vesegothae, id est illi alii eorum socii et occidui soli cultores, metu parentum exterriti, quidnam de se propter gentem Hunnorum deliberarent, ambigebant, diuque cogitantes tandem communi placito legatos in Romania direxerunt ad Valentem imperatorem fratrem Valentiniani imperatoris senioris, ut, partem Thraciae sive Moesiae si illis traderet ad colendum, eius se legibus eiusque vivere imperiis subderentur. Et, ut fides uberior illis haberetur, promittunt se, si doctores linguae suae donaverit, fieri Christianos. 132 Quod Valens conperto mox gratulabundus annuit, quod ultro petere voluisset, susceptosque in partibus Moesiae Getas quasi murum regni sui contra citeras statuit gentes. Et quia tunc Valens imperator Arrianorum perfidia saucius nostrarum partium omnes ecclesias obturasset, suae parti fautores ad illos diriget praedicatores, qui venientes rudibus et ignaris ilico perfidiae suae virus infundunt. Sic quoque Vesegothae a Valente imperatore Arriani potius quam Christiani effecti. 133 De cetero tam Ostrogothis quam Gepidis parentibus suis pro affectionis gratia evangelizantes huius perfidiae culturam edocentes, omnem ubique linguae huius nationem ad culturam huius sectae invitaverunt. Ipsi quoque, ut dictum est, Danubio transmeantes Daciam ripensem, Moesiam Thraciasque permisso principis insederunt.

>Rome fell because of religious intolerance, just like Nazi Germany, and just like America is right now

too bad the german tribes were christians too.

And the NSDAP was mildly hostile to the christian faith.

>too bad the german tribes were christians too

see Christians are so intollerant and destructive they can't even get along with each other! pol BTFO again

>platitudes
its the truth, regardless of how many times it has been repeated.

now go back to sucking on nigger cock, he's done with your wife already

When did Sup Forums agree that feminism caused the fall of Rome?

Too many foreigners and not enough solidarity (so they could focus less on civil war and more on prosperity) is the reason but whatever. Pick whatever argument some random person on facebook writes.

there wasn't enough solidarity because of right-wing bigots causing division.

It's a well-documented 250 year cycle.

My point being that there had always been a roman theocracy that had always oppressed dissenters. The fact that Christianity was the flavor of the month when the empire collapsed (because fall is another disingenuous libcuck faggot term) is immaterial

>this is what liberals actually believe

Rome fell due to a number of factors, you can't just simplify it like that

>Rome fell to a number of factors
>pic names a number of factors

No historian takes the idea that Christianity was te cause of Romes fall seriously. It was well on it's way, and the conversion had nothing to do with it.

Congratulations you win most retarded post of the day

>yiffmaster

Rome died to Globalization
It was too large to not employ foreign mercenaries, treated those territories poorly and eventually stopped using Italian armies.
The proposed EU army could have very well led to a collapse if stronger nations ever felt like they were getting the shit end of the stick.

And yet the Op of the thread insists its just like a rehash of Donald Trump

The "number of factors" it names is a bunch of vapid rhetoric clearly intended to imply that the situation directly mirrored modern factors in the United States by over-simplifying things.

While some of it is true, defending it makes you a complete faggot because of the intellectual dishonesty behind it. The grand message behind it is patently false. The US and the Roman Empire are two different things in two different situations.

Not to mention the people who talk about
>muh poor
are usually millennial faggots whose mommy and daddy pays for everything

That, and the corruption they had been draging since Julius Caesar, the demagogue aproach of politics of the time, and the ultra nacionalism bastards killing each other every 6 months to impose their better way of ruling.

>hurrdurr Rome fell because they didn't vote for Hillary Clinton

Wealthy romans never paid taxes desu

They didn't know about lead poisoning, other wise they wouldn't have made their water pipes out of lead, also fact for the day: the word plumbing comes from the roman word for lead

Rome fell because of mass immigration by barbarians

>age of intellect
