Stoicism City



My facebook page has been UNHACKED! So if you unfollowed me after weird stuff was posted, please refollow. I still am trying to get the name changed back but this is the page:
https://www.facebook.com/usaatodaynewss for now. "In Ancient Rome, stoic philosopher Seneca founded a city based on Stoic philosophy, where all would live according to nature, and be happy and virtuous. " Narration: "It was a paradise on Earth, where all followed the teachings of Stoic virtue." Seneca: "Can i buy some bread?" Vendor: "There was a drought, so there is no bread to be had." Seneca: "That is beyond my control so has no effect on my happiness." Narration: "But then the warlord Agamemnon came to conquer the Stoic city." Agamemnon: "I will burn this city to the ground if you don't submit to me!" Seneca: "That's fine. It doesn't bother us." Agamemnon: "Wait...what did he say?" Agamemnon's general: "I think he said it doesn't bother them." Agamemnon: "Alright...i guess, uh...burn it to the ground then." Description, the city burns, and Seneca is sitting in the fire. Seneca: "This is fine."
Oh really? It bothers you that Seneca is Roman and Agamemnon is Greek, but he's drawn as a Roman? Not very Stoic of you.
