re: #393 A hollow voice says: Abort SCOTUS

Doesn’t match my learning experience, but I was further into it than most. (By the way, who are all the Thucydides readers you mention — I’m the only one I know.)

And I have to run now, I’ll check back later.

I have read an edited and abridged version of Thucydides—I loved it. I need to find it and read again. In preparing to teach long ago a World History course that was thrust upon me, I also read secondary literature from George Martin Lane and Victor Davis Hanson (you can see how VDH, respected as he was as a historian, could fall into the trap of supporting American authoritarians).
