I swear, as I moved leftward realizing just how much of a fascist Teddy Roosevelt was legit hurt me. It was like finding out the truth about Elon all over again.

Sixth grade me in social studies: “So they just attacked Athens because they were violent warmongers jealous of their prosperity!? Why do we idolize them?!”
clueless over the nature Europeans had for the rest of the world
