Yes, but besides the aqueduct and sanitation and roads, what have the Romans done for us??

Fun fact all those ideas were taken by Romans not invented by them, they just had a habit of burning books and history wherever they went and tried to gaslight their empire that they came up with shit.

Which is completely on brand

So you're saying for us to have the next revolution in technology we should be stealing it 🤔. I think you're onto something. -Xi Jinping

I mean that’s how technology is developed 😭 one nation takes another nations tech and rebrands it as its own. Sometimes it stolen sometimes it’s a trade negotiation. I mean we as America do “take” a lot of technology from foreign individuals we end up nationalizing to try to hold a monopoly of said tech. The iPhone isn’t even primarily made in the US but is one of the United States biggest exports. Also kinda ironic because China will most likely get a lot further with AI than us because of all the western restrictions on AI development vs their lack there-of. Speaking of China the west literally took guns from them 😭😭 historically speaking we’ve been in a tit for tat with the eastern hemisphere of taking and developing tech for like 1000+ years at this point.

TLDR moral of the story - humans should just share tech cause someone gonna steal it and rebrand anyways

Yeah but how are we going to make money off each other if we have to share technology for the betterment of mankind? 😂
