A kormányfőtől antiszemitázás és agresszív vudu gügyögés hallik, a véleménydeformáló médiaértelmiség pedig olyan bornírtságokra ragadtatja magát, mint nemrégiben a balliberális kuruc.info (Index):
szemmel láthatólag ez a "magyar nemzeti többség" pattan le róluk, mint nyúlszar a deszkáról. és utána iszonyatos rinyálásba kezd, hogy mennyire el vannak ők nyomva. :-D
aztán az utókor vagy elfogadja nagy királynak, császárnak, vezérnek őket, vagy sem.
de voltaképpen minden uralkodó zsarnok. (kivéve a modern alkotmányos monarchiákat, amik ugyebár csak látszatmonarchiák, mivel a királynak/ királynőnek semmi hatalma sincs)
tehát adóztatják, sanyargatják a népet, és ha azok hőbörögnek, közéjük csapnak kíméletlenül.
egyébként jutinuanus összeszarta magát, kapkodott, hibát hibára halmozott, végül már menekülőre fogta volna a dolgot, de Theodora császárné inkább a maradásra és az erélyes föllépésre beszélte rá. ez volt a csajszi legfőbb évre: "Legszebb sír a trón!"
Ha már Hypatius, ne feledkezzünk meg Hypatiáról...
St. Cyril, the advocate of unity, was a man of fanatical zeal. He used his position as patriarch to incite pogroms against the very large Jewish colony in Alexandria. His claim to fame is the lynching of Hypatia, a distinguished lady who, in an age of bigotry, adhered to the Neoplatonic philosophy and devoted her talents to mathematics. She was ‘torn from her chariot, stripped naked, dragged to the church, and inhumanly butchered by the hands of Peter the Reader and a troop of savage and merciless fanatics: her flesh was scraped from her bones with sharp oyster-shells and her quivering limbs were delivered to the flames. The just progress of inquiry and punishment was stopped by seasonable gifts.’ After this, Alexandria was no longer troubled by philosophers.
Családi kapcsolatok révén szerzett hatalom, a birodalom gazdasági erejének kizsákmányolása, hosszú, mély belső válság okozása, kormányzati negyed Hagia Sophia építése PPP-ben...
Iustinianus nem volt tökéletes uralkodó, de minden párhuzam ellenére komoly sértés egy elmebeteg diktátorral összehasonlítani.
huligánok koalícióban, gyújtogatás, saját vezér választása, meg akarják dönteni a törvényes hatalmat, de végül az egész bandát beszorítják a cikuszba, és szétverik... :-)
nem véletlenül mondják, hogy a történelem ismétli önmagát.
"However, Justinian expelled the senate from the Palace, fearing treachery, thus ushering the two brothers into the mob's arms. Hypatius was dragged away from his house, despite the efforts of his wife to forestall it, and he was proclaimed emperor by the rioting mob at the Hippodrome. Hypatius seems to have thereafter altered in his reluctance, and began to play up to the part of Emperor.
However, the riots were soon successfully (if bloodily) quelled by the Imperial Guard, and Hypatius was captured by Justinian's men. Justinian is reported to have wanted to spare Hypatius's life, but his wife Theodora prevailed upon him to see the punishment meted out, and the involuntary usurper was executed."
vicces amúgy az egész.
a kocsihajtók két szurkolótábora, a zöldek és a kékek kaptak kezdetben össze. de aztán, az ellentéteket félretéve összefogtak a hatalom ellen, és teljesen szétbaszták a várost. Hypatius-t akarták megtenni császárnak Justinianus helyébe.
de aztán jöttek Belisarius és Mundus csapatai, beszorították a tömeget a hippodromba, és jó kis mészárlás következett.
On January 13 a tense and angry populace arrived at the Hippodrome for the races. The Hippodrome was next to the palace complex and thus Justinian could watch from the safety of his box in the palace and preside over the races. From the start the crowd had been hurling insults at Justinian. By the end of the day, at race 22, the partisan chants had changed from "Blue" or "Green" to a unified "Nika" (a Greek exhortation meaning to "win", "conquer", or "achieve victory"), and the crowds broke out and began to assault the palace. For the next five days the palace was under virtual siege.
Some of the senators saw this as an opportunity to overthrow Justinian, as they were opposed to his new taxes and his lack of support for the nobility. The rioters, now armed and probably controlled by their allies in the Senate, also demanded that Justinian dismiss the prefect John the Cappadocian, who was responsible for tax collecting, and the quaestor Tribonian, who was responsible for rewriting the legal code. They then declared a new emperor, Hypatius, who was a nephew of former Emperor Anastasius I.
Justinian, in despair, considered fleeing, but his wife Theodora is said to have dissuaded him, stating that, although an escape route across the sea lay open for the emperor, she herself would stay in the city, thereby quoting an ancient saying that "Royalty is a fine burial shroud". Justinian had his generals Belisarius and Mundus suppress the revolt on January 18, which they did with much bloodshed by trapping the rebels in the Hippodrome.
About thirty thousand rioters were reportedly killed. Justinian also had Hypatius executed and exiled the senators who had supported the riot.
