#Proscription

[caeruleumvexillum]

Can we talk about Verginius?

Not only did he persuade his slaves to not kill him for the money promised by the Triumvirs, so that they helped him get to Sicily (to Sextus), he also convinced the soldiers who were afther him, to follow him to Sicily to get money in a more honest way than killing a man. (yes ofc. he bribed them.)

The soldiers, afther getting payed, stayed with him in Sicily.

(App. 4.48)

I didnt get the Odazai twitter joke?

Pffttt then maybe it wasn't a funny joke. What I was trying to say is that as far as I myself could see over there it's socially accepted to harass people over ships, and odazai is one of the bsd ships that's picked on the most for some known unknown reason, so you know ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Octavian and Marcus Antonius afther they drafted the first proscription list, 43 B.C. colorized

[Image: two men in suits, each with a cigarette in their mouth, leaning in like they’re about to kiss — but the cigarettes meet instead. Caption: “Wahre Freundschaft gibt es nur unter Männern.”]

Ah yes, nothing says true friendship like casually burning down the Roman Republic — one puff at a time.

Octavian and Antony lighting up like, “Hey bro, let’s kill 300 senators (and ~2000 equites) and ride this state-sanctioned bromance into absolute power.” That’s not a kiss — that’s the Republic smoldering between their lips.

Its kinda like hm why do all the emperors that have been framed as depraved madmen are also the ones that more explicitedly descarded the senate? And i am not denying that they (caligula, domitian, nero etc) werent good rulers, or weren't power hungry, or even the fact that yeah the more self centered you are the more you ignore councils decision to rule on your own, but also when you think about the roman historiographs, and how they all belonged to senatorial classes, and how the senate was rightfully seething at its power and worth being taken away of course the historiographs would paint these emperors in the worst light ever (especially facturing the damnatio memoriae and the wanting to appease to the new regime)

Why was Antony loved by Romans even after the proscriptions?

Cassius Dio, writing more than two and a half centuries after Antony's death, describes Antony as being the most ruthless of the three Triumvirs at the time of the proscriptions.

So does Velleius, but it was this historian's policy to show Augustus, in whose circle he moved, in the best light, and to malign Antony; and therefore his evidence is not to be accepted. He accused Antony, in any case, chiefly of having shut for ever Cicero's "divine lips"; but the Philippics were not divine they were devilish.

But Suetonius who was separated from the period by over a hundred year less than this, and is the better authority, is emphatic, as has already been said, that Octavian was the only one of the three who showed no wish to bring the massacre to an end. Antony, in fact, appears to have been the first to feel shame for his atrocious behaviour; and at any rate there can be no doubt that he alone retained his popularity with Rome's democracy, whereas Octavian was detested.
