How much different would civilization look today had the Library of Alexandria not burned down?
Untold amounts of knowledge were lost, not to be rediscovered for centuries.
How much more advanced would we be?
A 🧵 dedicated to the libraries of antiquity that have defined us.

Don't you just love it when every comment in a thread is just shameless plugs and posts completely unrelated to the original tweet. Lmao

There should be legal recourse for being forced to take care of a child that isn't yours under false pretenses that he is fact your child.

This account easily has the worst comment threads of any big account on here.
Literally not one comment in the top 200 or more ever have anything to do with the post itself.
It's just people farming for engagement.
This kinda stuff is ruining this site.

The real question is why do they keep making Tom Holland go through these humiliation rituals?
Is it because he's publicly stated Hollywood is a cesspool of degeneracy?
@MattWalshBlog
The Barbary pirates had millions of white slaves just a few centuries ago, but we're not allowed to even mention this fact for some reason.

Prison reform now
Allowing violent offenders to be locked up with guys who got arrested for having a joint on them should be a crime against humanity.

Imagine down voting this. Redditors hate reality more than anything else. They think the subreddits that they never leave are reality itself.

This ain't it, chief.
No disrespect to this nice lady, but people's lives are on the line and we're already in a competency crisis across the west
@reddit_lies
My thoughts are this is either an edge lord from 4chan having fun trolling or this person needs to be locked up and their unborn child removed from their custody the moment it is born.

This reminds me of that article awhile back trying to claim that two black high school girls invented the Pythagorean theorem. 🤣
Curiously enough their names were not Pythagoras.

It's funny how these people are anti western but in all of their fictional utopian visions for the indigenous groups around the world they invariably end up illustrating them as being advanced, western influenced civilizations.
They can't even conceive of anything else.

What an absolute king. If she did that at the beginning of your relationship she will just continue to disrespect you.
The streets can have her.
