Was Brutus justified in killing Caesar?

>fight against caesar in the civil war
>get defeated by caesar
>caesar still forgives you
>caesar then gives you an awesome promotion to be governor
>kill caesar anyway

Fucking faggot.

What's historical and whats Shakespeare?

No.

HE

According to Cicero, the real Brutus was a piece of shit loan shark, who scammed the poor and hired goons to make them pay him back.

Not even a little bit

The assassination of Julius Caesar would've been the end of Rome if Augustus didn't step in.

Was Brutus justified in kicking out Superbus?

fpbp

he violated all cultural and moral standards. His soul was probably cast into tartarus, but it may yet emerge when sufficient millennia has passed. Probably as a dung beetle.

Yes Caesar was a tyrant who destroyed the Roman constitution.

the real question is who will be the modern day brutus who will stand up and take out the populist tyrant named DRUMPF

Chuck Schumer

Logically someone he liked a lot, who "betrayed" him, and was subsequently forgiven.

Jeb? Cruz? McConnal?

Bannon

Fpbp

Fuck Brutus. Caesar considered him family and the shit stabbed him in the back for it.

Barron

Jared Kushner obvs

"You too my child?"

Stephen Miller

The roman constitution was shit and ensured that the nobility could own all the wealth.

t. cato

Right because the Principate was known for it's egalitarian wealth distribution and restraint shown by the ruling classes

WAS

Brutus > Casca > Caesar > Mark Anthony > Cassius

Ben Carson, he's also quite stabby

like every constitution ever

FPBP

Carson or Christie.

A

He's more like the autistic augustus

Aka autistus

No but if he didnt do it somebody else would have, Praetorian guard probably.

GOOD

GOY

Cato pls

...

No, had he done it befire rome became an empire it wouldmake sense. But his actions were entirely based on emotionalisms that had nothing to do with the good of rome.

HAVING REJECTED HIS LOVING WIFE OCTAVIA; MARK ANTONY HAS COUPLED HIMSELF TO THE SORCERESS CLEOPATRA, PROMISING HER DOMINION OVER ALL ROME

HE WORSHIPS DOGS AND REPTILES
HE BLACKENS HIS EYES WITH SOOT, LIKE A PROSTITUE
HE DANCES AND PLAYS THE CYMBALS IN VILE NILOTIC RITES

...

Ok, real talk, why the fuck did Caesar forgive so many of his enemies? Especially Brutus, he should've known the guy is a piece of shit.

because he was a man of honor and never realized that he was the only one

He was literally too good for this world

He was a coward

t. Cato

he only forgave fellow romans though

true Roman forgiveness, for true Romans

His forgiveness put them in his debt. He didn't realize they'd all declare moral bankruptcy shortly after.

But that constitution had been virtually ignored by hundreds of people for at least a generation now.

Never compare Trump to Caesar - Caesar was respected, and actually did things and was good at them, Trump is a demagogic idiot who likes golf and real estate.

Underrated

Also Caesar was quite literally a genius human being, his diaries show a mastery of the art of propaganda, he was incredibly smart. Comparing an idiot like trump to Caesar is an insult to one of the smartest men in history.

He was fully aware that every step he took would be compared to Sulla, and he didn’t want to look like Sulla. Pardoning his enemies is the exact opposite of what Sulla did, he wanted to show the people that he was different and not just more of the same.

Underrated. Have a (you)

Donald Trump?

>4000 C.E.
>The Art of the Deal is used as a foundational text for English 101

I do wonder though, how in the everloving fuck did Octavian get away with Sulla style purges while still remaining as beloved as he was?

Machiavelli cites him as the shining example of "kill your enemies swiftly, so the rest of your reign you seem peaceful and kind."

He did get away with an ungodly amount of bullshit
After all he somehow managed to walk armed soldiers into the senate with no repercussions.
Caesar didn't even dream of trying something like that.

FPBP

Of course, only cucks have no ambition.

Silly user, everything's Shakespeare...
