        At least Nero still did the whole bread and circuses act and was mostly liked by the public.

        He’s much more of a later Roman emperor who stopped giving a shit about the bread and circuses idea.

          You mean to say that Facebook isn’t the main distraction of the -10s? Before Facebook it was TV that was the circus and low prices and no/hidden VAT provided the bread.

        Except Nero was popular with the little people. He‘s more of a Caligula. Especially after his latest transformation.
