You know what I cannot summon any moral outrage over? The killing of the people running the slave mine* by the liberated slaves. I know that I am supposed to see this is a sign of the outbreak of SAVAGERY but somehow I cannot find it in myself to care. (Lovely to see that in the post-apocalyptic future there will be a use for classics professors. Of course, it is a pity that that use will be creating and running a slave mine, but you can't have everything.)

*Why the fuck would you need to be mining for coal so soon? There's got to be tons of it lying around and you could always use wood to heat your place which would be easy to find even without chopping trees down WHAT WITH ALL THE EMPTY BUILDINGS AND NO PEOPLE IN THEM USING THE FURNITURE AND SUCH.

I ALWAYS KNEW THAT CLASSICS PROFESSORS WANTED TO REVIVE SLAVERY BEFORE LATIN.

IN DEFENCE HE WAS A PROFESSOR OF ANCIENT GREEK AND I ALWAYS KNEW THOSE BUGGERS WERE LYING ABOUT WANTING TO STUDY DEMOCRACY AND LITERATURE. IT'S ALL ABOUT HELOTS AND SLAVERY.
