Alexander the Greats closest friend “Should I allow you to win every time Alexander?”

Just because a nation may not be to pay you with tribute or gold does not mean they shouldn’t be allowed to repay a debt with allegiance.

D.B. 3.21. 2021.

The problem is not people being uneducated.  
The problem is that people are educated just enough to believe what they have been taught, and not educated enough to question anything from what they have been taught. 🧠
