Why Sparta? Classics and the Alt Right: Part 2

Let's see how many people this upsets

A couple of months ago I wrote a piece talking about why the alt right/fascists/ whatever they want they want to call themselves* love Ancient Rome. It was met with some incredible feedback, as I wrote about afterwards, but I remain nevertheless determined to continue the series to talk about the true darling of the toxic male-led, ultra conservative, hard right, trad-posting, whatever you call them section of the internet: Sparta.

*(If you’re annoyed because you’re one of them but I didn’t get the right label for you, take a long look at yourself.)
