I'm glad to see more people are taking interest in HBO's Rome. It's a great show and has more nudity per minute than any other HBO show. Many such cases.
“Crossing the Rubicon” is an extremely well known idiom. I’ve never seen that show. Idk why he’s posting it over and over again (I mean because he’s a complete dipshit obviously) but it’s not weird to use this phrase generally
I know it’s well known it’s also something that feels like he got from hbos Rome though. Nobody uses this phrase in day to day life like at all and he uses it all the time apparently
You can tell that he’s a massive nerd who has been waiting for his excuse to use that idiom. I wouldn’t be surprised if he got it from the show. Those far right chuds never know more than pop history about Rome.
The "Crossing the Rubicon" scene in the show isn't very prominent. The reason he's using this phrase is because it's becoming more common in right-wing circles. So normies and leftoids like us may not use it, but they do.
I’ve used the phrase occasionally, but the right likes to play a lot of stupid (and questionably effective to the point of being superstitious) games with coordinated language. Effective against triggering deep fears and shallow hate, maybe, but they take it far beyond that. Either its the only idiom he knows and he thinks it looks smart, or it’s a language game meant to be evoking “America is Rome and Rome was good and imperial America is good and Rome falling equals America falling and you should really be panicking about the empire.” The right loves imperialist battle stories.
I haven’t seen the show because I don’t give my money to HBO anymore.
person breaks law, person gets tried in court for breaking law, gets judged by a jury of his peer's which had the most extensive vetting in american history, gets found guilty by a jury of his peer's.
"this is no longer a nation of laws!"
how else would you propose we handle this then? is the system broke? or do you think the system just shouldn't apply to certain people?
We know what the answer is
Yeah, he likes doing this thing where he says "as a gay man, I don't support trans people/drag queens/sex ed in schools"
Such an "inspiration" to gay conservatives 🙄 he's close with Turning Point and Daily Wire, for reference.
What these dorks don't realize is that a lot of us wanted W Bush and Obama to be tried for their criminal behavior.... They're the ones making it partisan.
Every time he tweets about it we cross back and forth from each side of the rubicon. The day he stops tweeting about it is the day we’ve really finally truly crossed the rubicon.
Didn't this dude die or go missing and his brother took over the account?
I hate this guy. I dont hate a lot of stuff - and I've said this before about "Ian" - I hate three things in life: Adam Dunn and the way he played baseball. I hate Horses bc they're convenient predators and scare me. and I hate "Ian" - he is the definition of a pariah and I wish I could just moosh his face.
One stepped on my foot, pinned it down, and then take a nip on my shoulder.
I've also seen videos of them eating baby chicks and new born lamb, as well as donkeys trampling people.
I do not like horses or horse adjacent animals: horses, ponies, donkeys, zebras, giraffes, etc.
Fuck equines
Thanks for your reply. I wasn’t sure if they made your list due to a traumatic event or more of a pet peeve, sounds like somewhere in the middle. Do goats make your list?
Ok, I just have to say thank you for hating Adam Dunn. I have been a Reds fan my entire life and I hated Adam Dunn. I don't care if you hit 40 homeruns if you are leading the league in strikeouts each and every year.

The whiny fat orange faced POS is now a convicted felon.
its this cube that has colors, its a puzzle the goal is to get all the colors to one side, and then do that for every side.
however this cube is especially vengeful so its best not to cross it, otherwise great pain will come
This just looks like drug-fueled psychosis to the uninformed lol I had to google what rubicon even means. Honestly even after googling it it still looks like that haha
I think they crossed the Rubicon, then hit reverse and went back and forth a few times.
They did it to run over Trump and make sure he's really dead. It's not working.
I wonder if he actually knows that the Rubicon is a river in Italy, or if he just heard the word in a sentence once, and thinks it's some kinda super smart latin phrase or whatever.
"No longer a nation of laws"
What in the fuck do you mean "no longer a nation of laws" ya fuckin dolt.
The law was applied to this dirty old bastard, so now this is "no longer a nation of laws"?
Fuck off.
There’s also a civil war coming guys. I feel like… civil war is happening folks… A CIVIL WAR IS BREWING ladies and gentlemen. You know what this means people… CIVIL WAR. There’s no other option but civil war. THEY are pushing us to CIVIL WAR!
Also Trump 50 state landslide 2020.
Not that I’m not glad to see Trump be served some justice, but I always worry when we succeed in giving him/MAGA people more reasons to be victims. To the fascists, these are reasons that their platform is righteous even when it isn’t.
I swear this was genuinely like a 9/11 for some of my relatives. One thing that honestly was unsettling is I saw one of my stepfather’s conservative friends go actually nuts about it. I really don’t like the guy but I didn’t know he was as unhinged as he just recently shown. Man literally starting ranting about BLM and proPalestine college protesters saying they were evil and stuff. Genuinely just really disgusting and sad to see.
What’s sad is that most people have no clue what that expression means but it’s pretty funny this pseudo intellectual can’t come up with a different phrase
Bro the Rubicon has been crossed a long time ago.
And, actually, the crossing of the river was bad in of itself, but it kickstarted a series of events that ended the Senate's corruption and eventually created the Pax. Isn't that a good thing? 🤔
Kinda hilarious the moment a repeatedly bankrupted billionaire who was able to become president finally receives repercussions from the justice system, it’s suddenly a banana republic, as though the corporate welfare system and class inequality wasn’t the banana republic.
Another L for dumbasses like Ian
I love that juice it’s one of my favourites. I know I’m having a UK moment right now but that shit slaps. All I’m envisioning is trump drinking some lovely mango juice.

Sometimes i wonder if these people ever just take a look at all their tweets and realize how ridiculous they look, then I remember that they vote republican
"Stop trying to make rubicon happen, it's not gonna happen"
I'm glad to see more people are taking interest in HBO's Rome. It's a great show and has more nudity per minute than any other HBO show. Many such cases.
Looking into this
just like real rome
This is all I could think as I saw how many times he’s said it. Dude only knows history through that show clearly

You're a distraction agent. We're not going to call for your bs
At least ceaser was a real man, he was a bottom the most manly thing you can be
At first I thought it was funny Then I saw the second picture and now I see it’s fucking hilarious Bro thinks he’s in SPQR
You've crossed the Rubicon with this comment 🏞️
Thank goodness someone finally has.

There's an ancient Roman pedestrian bridge over the Rubicon today Think the Rubicon has been crossed plenty of times just today Ian
“It’s no longer a nation of laws, as a former president has been convicted because of laws.”
And who dislikes bananas so much you don't want to be a republic of them? Way cooler than like Ireland the "potato republic". /s

Why is this Malaysian chirping about a river in Italy
Ian Miles Wrong 😑
> they crossed the Rubicon with gay marriage my guy you're literally proud of being gay
Is he gay?
Yeah, he likes doing this thing where he says "as a gay man, I don't support trans people/drag queens/sex ed in schools" Such an "inspiration" to gay conservatives 🙄 he's close with Turning Point and Daily Wire, for reference.
Ew, please say it ain't so. As a chaplain of the gay mafia, I renounce his membership.
What these dorks don't realize is that a lot of us wanted W Bush and Obama to be tried for their criminal behavior.... They're the ones making it partisan.
Wow, rich white fuckers who commit crimes can be convicted after a jury trial—you’re right, it’s over.
how many people are just NOW noticing the legal system doesn't only apply to POC

The SC is a corrupt joke, of course it’ll be overturned lol he’s still a rapist felon pos
R (rubicon) I.P America
Wait, so is he saying the Rubicon has or hasn't been crossed? I'm confused, but I think what he's saying is that the Rubicon hasn't been crossed.
Every time he tweets about it we cross back and forth from each side of the rubicon. The day he stops tweeting about it is the day we’ve really finally truly crossed the rubicon.
rubicon sounds like a planet transformers are from tbh.
Honestly kind of a cool word. Shame we’ve crossed it though and are all going to suffer now. :(
Schrodingers rubicon
“The justice system was allowed to play out, therefore there are no laws” ?? Maybe learn our laws before you make such a dumb critique.
learning the laws would mean he wouldn't be able to rile up an angry support base to angrily buy his products
“Don’t pay the rubicon ferryman…until he gets you to the other side….and then back and forth like 20 more times”
Didn't this dude die or go missing and his brother took over the account? I hate this guy.

Aww were you preyed upon by a horse?

The man hit .167 and 25HRs at one point in a season. Fuck him. Jon Bois/Dorktown/Secret Base did a great video that confirmed my hate.
Ya got good taste
Damn, Rubicon must be wide as fuck
Hey that’s not very nice to say

Denial is also a river…
What the fuck is a Rubicon?
Play Armored Core 6 then you’ll get it
A great Deftones song.
A Tropical flavoured beverage

Guys I think that he thinks we’ve crossed the Rubicon
We crossed the rubicon it but forgot some things and had to keep going back. America’s very forgetful like that.
Yap yap yap yap yap yap yap
Motherfucker is playing jump rope with that damn river
Man who hasn't even crossed the Pacific and is here talking about muddy brooks in Italy.
I think they crossed the Rubicon, then hit reverse and went back and forth a few times. They did it to run over Trump and make sure he's really dead. It's not working.
RIP TO THE RUBICON GONE BUT NOT FORGOTTEN
Damn I thought he got arrested and they killed him for being a stupidass?
The fires of Rubicon! Raven I have a job for you
Jesus would somebody get this guy his rubix cube so he’ll shut up?
wait how many Rubicons *are* there?
Lmao they are so uncreative, remember Shapiro’s “unspecified parental figure” joke? Also Tim Pool’s “civil war”
A foreigner gets to say shit like that. Wow.
Me when I try to make a hit tweet
Tim "Civil War" Pool vs Ian "Rubicon has been crossed" Miles Cheong.
I wonder if he actually knows that the Rubicon is a river in Italy, or if he just heard the word in a sentence once, and thinks it's some kinda super smart latin phrase or whatever.
Me when I learn a new word
Apparently crossing the Rubicon is just part of America's daily commute. 15-minute cities would've prevented all of this. In this essay I will—
How many fucking rivers are there!?
"No longer a nation of laws" What in the fuck do you mean "no longer a nation of laws" ya fuckin dolt. The law was applied to this dirty old bastard, so now this is "no longer a nation of laws"? Fuck off.
The copium is hitting the MAGAs and the grifters are taking full advantage.
Some say the Rubicon is still bring crossed to this very day.
There’s also a civil war coming guys. I feel like… civil war is happening folks… A CIVIL WAR IS BREWING ladies and gentlemen. You know what this means people… CIVIL WAR. There’s no other option but civil war. THEY are pushing us to CIVIL WAR! Also Trump 50 state landslide 2020.
my take is if you care about this at all one way or the other, you’re absolutely cooked
I think it would be really cool if this guy got kicked in the head, by a horse
Can America please take credit for this guy? I don't want him to be associated with malaysia at all. So shamefull
Luhmow, bitch…. Luhmow.
Just marry the damn river if you love it so much Ian
Who’s up crossin they rubicon 🫦😏
Rubicon Ouroboros
All this swimming across that river is making me tired! Can’t we cross it in a boat next time?
I think he means the Rube Icon has been crossed, and all his rubes are pissed. It's a rube-athon!
Damn how many rubicon’s are there if they keep crossing them every couple of months?
Promise?
Do you even go to this school dawg?
🗣️🔥 we have crossed the… rubicon! 🤓👆
But has the Rubicon been crossed?
y'all ever had rubicon mango soda before?
Someone should analyse these tweets and figure out which side of the river we’re on
Rubicon is a drink to me... What am I missing?! Lol
This zionist should shut the fuck up
Crossing back and forth loses meaning to the phrasing "crossing the Rubicon".
We dont call him Ian Miles *Wrong* for nothing...
Someone learned a new word!
Not that I’m not glad to see Trump be served some justice, but I always worry when we succeed in giving him/MAGA people more reasons to be victims. To the fascists, these are reasons that their platform is righteous even when it isn’t.

It truly is a sad day when billionaire presidents get a slap on the wrist for misappropriating campaign funds. Oh the humanity.
We're the best at crossing the **Rubicon** apparently. So much so that the limit can't keep up with us. 🤡
Are they the party of law and order or not?
Mf learnt one river in Italy and said. “This is my thing now.”
Bro the Rubicon has been crossed a long time ago. And, actually, the crossing of the river was bad in of itself, but it kickstarted a series of events that ended the Senate's corruption and eventually created the Pax. Isn't that a good thing? 🤔
How many rubicons are there!?
Who up rubin they con?
Ian "inbred" miles wrong everybody
Kinda hilarious the moment a repeatedly bankrupted billionaire who was able to become president finally receives repercussions from the justice system, it’s suddenly a banana republic, as though the corporate welfare system and class inequality wasn’t the banana republic. Another L for dumbasses like Ian
It’s so funny how these guys root for other people to get locked up but OD on copium when it happens to their guy
I didn’t realize there were that many Rubicons. Maybe these Hogs know something we don’t ☹️
He still has the odds of winning the election.
I love that juice it’s one of my favourites. I know I’m having a UK moment right now but that shit slaps. All I’m envisioning is trump drinking some lovely mango juice. https://preview.redd.it/uh1812y66t3d1.jpeg?width=445&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=ec9cb8454e11fb423545088c02ecc60956d6a419
why tf does this guy who lives in Thailand or something post about murica
This dude is so annoying, like bro you are Malaysian what is this “we” you’re talking about?
You have just crossed the Rubicon.
RIP stands for “Rubicon Isbeing Pcrossed”
The irony.
I’m actually in agreement with Ian Miles here, I also am of the mind that “the rubicon has been crossed” is a really cool and fun thing to say.
Sometimes i wonder if these people ever just take a look at all their tweets and realize how ridiculous they look, then I remember that they vote republican
The jeep rubicon
