Rome took about a thousand years to "fall" so it might be tricky to attribute any particular "feeling". In some ways, perhaps it still exists, just in a different form (not unlike how the current People's Republic of China might be considered a more contemporary manifestation of the Shang Dynasty)

This is what ChatGPT "thought" about your comment:
``` - Misses the point of the original comment. - Overly pedantic instead of engaging with the sentiment. - Unclear analogy (PRC as a continuation of the Shang Dynasty). - Appears detached from social norms—not recognizing the rhetorical nature of the discussion. - Ultimately, basementcat's response likely seemed out of place and frustratingly abstract, making it easy to dismiss as nonsensical. ```
But like, for real, thinking that "ROME" still exists now makes zero sense.
