I know when I was reading that blog's series about Sparta my instant take was "Oh so this is the Confederacy without the child soldiers part" and the blog ends with "Oh it's like North Korea.", like fucking hell. And the dude goes on and on about getting primary sources and secondary sources and how to read them but then a modern nation comes along and nah CNN is good enough. Fucking tiresome.
