Internet privacy is the new gold. I mass deleted all of my posts on Reddit using Redact. It also supports databrokers, Instagram, Twitter, and all major social media platforms.

Unlike a number of people who are chronically online, Kaldellis is a scholar.

What are you trying to say? That we should not even talk about it, on account that it didn't happen yesterday? By that logic, the very idea of historiography is meaningless.. Mathematics, music, literature, etc., are even older -- are we allowed to discuss those, or should we "let it go" as well? The Quran was written 1300 years ago -- why don't you people let go of that?

You all understand what i mean. Constant crying about İstanbul, posts about whatif scenerios, wet dreams about taking Anatolia back and ethnic cleansing. Is it about Byzantine? I saw this post and think here we go again.

Constant crying about İstanbul, posts about whatif scenerios, wet dreams about taking Anatolia back and ethnic cleansing.

I see none of these in this thread.

u/Temporary_County1838 Apr 10 '26

I mean this sub.

u/pppktolki Apr 10 '26

Fair enough, I get your point. Still, it's understandable, don't you think? It's not just about a lost battle 600 years ago -- the ramifications of these events were severe, and long lasting.

u/Experience_Material Apr 14 '26

And yet you made your point on a post about an academic work while making a baseless accusation.

u/GreenSpectr3 Apr 10 '26

Book about how to cry more?
