Australian "anti-landlord" activists are sharing information on empty properties across the country for squatters to take over and potentially steal the deeds from their original owners. Jordie van den Berg, also known as "PurplePingers," has been posting the addresses of homes he has staked out in Victoria, New South Wales, and Tasmania. Van den Berg
Oh so the right wingers just want to embrace modernity instead of retvrning to Romvn trvdition?
Literally no retvrn guy wants any part of roman culture back. Like imagine telling one of those guys we're abolishing the police and making a public holiday only women are legally allowed to participate in. Also the rich are expected to pay for all public festivities which we're having weekly now.
Edit: I want to be clear that ancient Rome was BAD, but it's funny just how much conservatives would hate it.
We need to bring back greco-roman social mores! Women are expected to be horny and abortion is legal until the kid is legally an adult.
You can legally sell your kid into slavery 3 times. But not 4 that would be weird.
So wait, the same kid or 3 different kids
Same kid. A person who had been sold 3 times by his pater familias (male head of the family) was no longer subject to the legal power of the pater familias. But they were if they had only been sold twice.
Are people giving him back or is it more like rent?
I think Roman slavery was usually like a contract thing. You're enslaved for x months/years and these are the kinds of things you can be expected to do.
Not an expert though.
That's Nexum, possibly. Slaves taken in pirate raids or as war booty were slaves for life, as were vernae. They could achieve freedom by various means, but it was not assumed or an inherent part of the process.
If you're selling someone multiple times you're probably dealing with nexum, which would sort of be like... renting your child out I suppose. Or like using your kid as collateral? I don't really know the exact mechanics here.
