‘Agamemnon’s armour is completely historically innacurate, they would NEVER talk like that in ancient Greece, Helen of Troy is NOT supposed to look like tha-’
@lizyoubeengone This! Race in relation to skin colour is fairly recent concept (I use recent very loosely here) but it never used to be that way. I think the storyline criticism are valid, but any criticism about casting or “historical” accuracy gets the biggest eye roll from me lol
Being racist is a disease. Because no way right wingers are up in arms about the odyssey. Ancient greeks were NOT all pale skinned blonds with blue eyes. and if you know anything about ancient civilizations, the Mediterraneans categorized ppl by culture and citizenship not race
