I've always said Alice Oseman is a shameless hypocrite. Weren't you the one who said you'd never include explicit sex scenes because it was fetishization? But when you do it suddenly it's fine. The hate for Alice Oseman will never be enough.
@Th_Angelopoulos To add to this central to Homeric Epic is what it meant to be 'Greek' post fall of Bronze Age Civilizations in the area. That includes people from Egypt, Africa, and Asia. Its a preservation of a collective memory that has very little attachment to Northern Europe.
Ann Coulter,
You are ignorant as fuck. Not sure if it’s from skipping ancient Greece in school or just being a moron. Either way, here’s what we know:
Homer and Euripides weren’t “writing myths about African gods”.
They weren’t writing myths at all.
Those myths already existed for centuries. Homer turned them into epic poetry. Euripides turned them into tragedies.
You clearly know fuck all about ancient Greeks. They drenched in praise black and brown people.
Homer calls black Africans the “blameless Ethiopians” aka the most pious humans alive. “Blameless” was a praise awarded only to heroes. So holy that Zeus and the entire Olympian crew ditch the Trojan War for 12 straight to feast with them.
Herodotus says they’re the tallest, most handsome, longest-lived people on earth.
The Greeks worshipped Egypt as the cradle of civilization. Herodotus called Egyptians the oldest people alive and gushed over their wisdom, geometry, medicine, and temples. Plato sent his smartest characters there to study.
Greek myths are packed with black kings and queens: Zeus fathers Epaphus, king of Egypt. Memnon, Ethiopian king, rolls up to Troy as a legendary warrior Achilles has to fight. Andromeda, an Ethiopian princess, marries into Greek royalty.
They straight-up admired brown Levantines too. Phoenicians gave them the alphabet. Cadmus (a Phoenician prince) founded Thebes in Greece.
Meanwhile? Aristotle roasts your Northern European ancestors as “full of spirit but wanting in intelligence and skill” aka brave but stupid.
Brown peoples? He calls them “intelligent and inventive” but lacking bravery.
The classics were never some pure white European fanfic.
The ancient Greeks respected and borrowed from Africans and Easterners while calling your barbarian bloodline uncivilized savages.
It’s embarrassing yourself.
@ShakeLS@Stunt_ManMik3 They weren't white or at least not in the way it is conceived in the present. They were Mycenaean would would not align themselves with northern Europeans. If you go by your logic no one other than someone from Greece and Turkey should be in this movie.
