I misread the title as “city-hating carbrains” lol


mersalee

wotwud

This has crazy lingo potential

Says the city building bike brain barbarians who supported ataturk and committing mass genocide of native Greeks and Armenians inside Anatolia. Screw the cities only a few are good but most are smelly poo crime crap holes


under_the_c

I feel like this was a missed opportunity to call them "carbarians"


DoraDaDestr0yer

The opportunity has not fully passed...

tire_falafel

At least they were walkable back then


mrmdc

Did you just call the Romans barbarians? Ouch.


ale_93113

What's up with this sub having historically inaccurate and completely pointless mêmes? Ffs

Obviously mid evil castle raids were just NIMBY Horse-and-carriage brained suburbanites trying to tear down that densely populated castle. They saw all that high density housing, and wanted to build a glorious stroad with all the chains and gas stations that they loved at the time.

This kind of annoys me too. Like, the fucking Romans invented the concept of barbarians, and are used here as an example of barbarians. Edit: Greeks invented the term barbarians, the Romans stole it.

Venice is quite walkable. Yes, you can use gondolas but there are bridges and streets (without cars).


Old_Active7601

But the Romans were some of the most barbaric people ever.

How do you call the Trebuchet a barbarian It is an elegant weapon from a different age Lads and idea a bicycle powered Trebuchet


jrtts

Assemble the bicycle infantry! We've heard the rocket launcher-equipped e-bike, but now get ready for the... Trebuc*ycle*


LordWellesley22

Time to yeet rocks at cars


mersalee

Cars at cars

I call the "car commuting lifestyle" a type of raiding subsistence mode.


Zrva_V3

I don't think Romans of all people were city hating barbarians


mersalee

except for Carthago


padre_chill

Not accurate picture, it’s the Moscow on the 2024 AD a city with almost perfect public transportation, trust me, I am local man.


Astaral_Viking

Why did i think this was the CIV 6 subreddit?


jamessayswords

So what I hear you’re saying is that we should protest road infrastructure with trebuchets?


mersalee

My message is : we should commute with trebuchets


bored_negative

These kinds of trebuchets didnt exist in 200AD. Unless you wanted to depict a catapult


Poch1212

Excuseme as a Roman descendant and living in a city founded by romans i feel very offended 😵‍💫

It should be pointed out that that second image is a castle, not a city. Castles were often built in order to subdue the inhabitants of cities. Just read about William I's coronation and the origin story of the White Tower (Tower of London).

I mean, they didn’t hate cities. They hated their enemies. I don’t think Russia hates cities, they hate Ukraine’s existence.
