The thing about historical lolcows is half of them would probably have you killed for making fun of them like we do here.
Would caligula be considered a lolcow in today's standard? - and other historical lolcows..

I feel like you’d have an easier time listing Roman emperors that WERENT cows.
Aside from good old Caligula you had terminal drama queen Nero, who made a castrated boy his wife. He named him after his ex-wife who he is alleged to have kicked to death himself.
The number of the beast 666 was meant to have been derived from Nero’s name so he gets edgelord cow points too.
Even Julius Caesar, arguably one of the biggest chads of ye olden times, had some cow tendencies with his massive ego.
There’s also Elagabalus the proto-troon that I recommend reading up on in your free time

That was Tiberius, or it was claimed of him. Gaius Caligula is said to have created a brothel of posh bitches / aristocratic women to raise money or degrade his foes. Naming his horse as consul was likely a joke, if it happened.
Caligula was popular with the people and he was popular with the army. The senate hated him, but the senate was increasingly powerless and irrelevant. The key thing to remember is that the old histories written about Caligula were authored by either people in the senatorial class, or using sources written by people in the senatorial class.
TLDR: He was probably erratic in his personal behavior and habits and cruel/uncaring in his treatment of the senatorial class and their close associates, but it didn't affect all that many people and almost no one who wasn't personally involved actually hated him. He gets as bad a rap as Domitian does, and for much the same reasons. Here's my opinion: the Roman state was in good shape during Caligula's rule, and that Claudius had very little trouble with his own rule after succeeding him shows that fundamental stability.

yeah caligula tried fighting posiden god of the sea, after he botched an attempt to invade britian by not telling lol the other garrisons to come, wanted the senate to give him honors, they refused, so lmao he "fought" posiden by building a brigdge of boats, having him and his troops cross it, then throwing the spears into the sea to fight posiden.
Moving away from the roman empire to germany in the 1500s, the artist cranach, he had a waifu/oc centuries before deviant art and anime became a cancer on this earth; he painted the same looking woman over and over again, from bibilical depctions like eve in the garden, st johns head, and st agatha, to more bawdier situations like the ill matched pair series, or one that shows a brothel, I am disregarding the personal potrait comissions but alot the other stuff has the same woman with the same looking face. he pulled that artist unable to grow by painting the same face over and over again, in his non potrait works.

you mean from old rome to the holy roman empire. he also painted 5000 portraits, i would suggest its more lazyness than a waifu.
Caligula was a good emperor that hated the roman deep state, and to make fun of them he made his horse Konsul.
he also invented a nice trick to get around spending limitations by letting his horse life in absolute luxury..
Maybe in the same way that my mensch sv3rige is considered a lolcow by the nu-farmer tranny faggots

I don't think believing you're the living embodiment of Zeus, fucking and impregnating your sister, and then performing a drunken impromptu caesarian on her would be tame by any standards.
Eh, nah. He's just an obvious example of a mad period, dime a dozen really,
Doesn't everything we know about Caligula come from people who hated him and eventually murdered him?
It would be in their best interest to present him as the epitome of evil and perversion in order to make whoever came after him instantly look good by comparison.
If it's true then sure but I highly doubt that it is.

historians do argue that, some even argue some of his actions like voting a horse in console, and some of the actions he made the particians do like address him as a god, or admire his impromtu acting, was basically to troll the senate, just because he could, and if we go by that alternative theory he may qualify less as a lolcow and more as a fail troll to the highest degree given he eventually got stabbed for his antics.
then again I consider his epic battle with POSIDEN GOD OF THE sea, especailly after a major fuck up of forgetting to notify his army to invade britian, as lol worthy. I mean the whole show of doing that was major copium.
Elagabalus became the woman in his 'marriage' to Hierocles the charioteer who was encouraged to beat his 'wife' up a bit for the full trad wife experience.

Null was right. Even back then, all the """""""trad"""""" trannies are just weird, submissive/masochistic perverts.
I'm surprised nobody has mentioned Commodus yet. Gladiator fights were to him like an episode of Sonic the Hedgehog is to an autist today.

Unless you hosted the site in Germania or Parthia.
Nero was the original attention whore cow before twitter came along, He used to put on performances and force people to watch. No one was allowed to leave the theater, so people would fake being dead so that they could be carried out.I feel like you’d have an easier time listing Roman emperors that WERENT cows.

A sperg? Most likely. A sister fucker and general all-fucker to rival Pan? Maybe. Rome's first imperial shitposter? Perhaps. But a lolcow? Who can say really...
