How would you rewrite this quote?

you're speaking like modern art

which is to say, degenerate.

>Dude you ever notice how people keep doing this crazy thing where when everything goes to shit they fix and when it doesn't they don't
>haha weed lmao

Its as clearly worded and to the point as possible, what has that got to do with modern art?

you dont think it can be improved? wheres your competitive spirit?

Quote is untrue. Roman Empire was "degenerate" long before its fall, in fact it was after Christian morality was implemented that they were conquered.

I was aiming for an accurate translation in as few words as possible though if you prefer a long winded version:

"Every time we build something it falls apart and yet we rebuild it the same as before"

I think it would be difficult to say "those vices (degeneracy) can accrue over time and don't all happen at once" while also being as concise as the caption already is. Suggestion?

Western Rome was degenerate with or without Christianity. The ERE still survived like an extra 500 years despite being more fervent Christians than the WRE.

You can't change it to make rational sense because the entire gist is false.

Whats the entire gist? That evil and good wrestle in a circle for eternity?

Yes, but the history of Byzantium's ruling class is notorious for corruption, intrigue and "degeneracy". Vice doesn't make empires fall. The Ottoman Empire was one of the most vice-ridden empires ever and it was very successful. Its a very simplistic and moralistic historical revisionism.

shame on a nigga who tried to run game on a nigga

I'm not arguing that corruption isn't part of an empire's collapse, but that vice and "degeneracy" are. This is clearly not true. The Muslims are entirely degenerate and are currently conquering Western Europe.

There is the moral of all human tales;”
“Tis but the same rehearsal of the past,
First Freedom, and then Glory — when that fails,
Wealth, vice, corruption, — barbarism at last.
And History, with all her volumes vast,
Hath but one page,

Build it up.
Tear it down.
Forever.

i would say though, that our degeneracy allows for a muslim invasion, and the degeneracy in the muslim population will never allow it to triumph in any meaningful sense above maybe bloodshed. Theyll never achieve what we did

We're fucked.

Dude, it's already triumphed. The mayor of London is a Muslim, a long with other European cities. They forced the native population to not even be able to speak out against them. They won.

Easy times breed soft men. Soft men breed hard times. Hard times breed strong men. Strong men breed easy times.

I'm well aware. Our European body can either wither away to this pathogen or it can violently vomit.
Very analogous.

Really stupid and simplistic moralism.
