@JasonfromGTAVI If you have pre ordered this game without seeing any gameplay and without demanding a disc version appears, you are everything that’s wrong with gaming. Do better you fucking sheep
I think one of the great ironies is that most of the men who make good husbands and fathers are relatively unskilled communicators. They lack the toolset to be manipulative, and can't say the right things, even when they recognize the need for soothing words. They would suck in most sales jobs. They can't be your therapist/girlfriend substitute. Women just need to accept that this is not a flaw, but a feature, and seek that kind of support from others.
Sometimes when I hear a person talking about what they want out of a relationship, it's like I'm listening to my three year old talk about how she wants candy for breakfast. She really, really wants candy for breakfast. She thinks her life would be better if she had candy for breakfast. Life is so unfair that you can't just eat candy for every meal, in fact, and if only Mommy would stop being mean and understand that she WANTS CANDY, then she'd finally be seen and satisfied and truly content.
In the Odyssey, after the slaughter of the suitors, Odysseus deals with the female slaves of the palace.
Eurycleia tells him which of the servant women were unfaithful and slept with the suitors. There are twelve of these slave women. Odysseus first orders them to clean the hall (to remove the corpses and wash away the blood). Then he leads them out into the courtyard.
There Telemachus hangs them all together with a rope from a high beam (like birds caught in a net), in order to punish them with a dishonorable death.
The remaining slave women who had stayed faithful are spared and continue to serve in the palace.
The relatives of the slain suitors gather and attack to take revenge. A battle breaks out, in which the father of Antinous, Eupeithes, is killed. The goddess Athena (in the form of Mentor) and Zeus intervene. Athena stops the fighting and imposes peace among the people of Ithaca, so that the cycle of bloodshed will not continue.
The Odyssey ends with the definitive restoration of order, family, and peace on Ithaca.
This is a just ending according to the ways, customs, and justice of the Greeks of that era. There is nothing misogynistic about it. Anyone who reaches such anachronistic conclusions is ignorant, unhistorical, uneducated, and stupid.
Christopher Nolan is an insignificant man, weak and unworthy of interpreting Homer’s Odyssey. That is the reason he will be forgotten. The film may make millions and billions; it interests no one except the fools.
What matters most is that the true face of this ideology is revealed. An ideology that acts like a cancer in our societies and rots the souls of the younger generations. An ideology that knows only how to poison people’s thinking and future, turning them into slaves of their own selves. A decline that will be written on the blackest pages of history.
