@Shinaxite_ Egyptian hieroglyphs (an alphabet invented by Africans in Africa) is most likely the ultimate ancestor of all Latin alphabets (like English) and Aramaic alphabets (like Arabic) btw. He’s not just wrong he’s EXTREMELY WRONG.

@RaoSahi16350969 Your fact check is absolute RUBBISH. “Haremde Goethe” is a completely different Osman Hamdi Bey Painting. This painting’s bame IS “Avluda Kadınlar” but there is no doubt that it was made by Abdülmecid Efendi because it is included in a photo album he made of his painting.

English

Rao Saab@RaoSahi16350969·10 Haz

Rubbish claim; painting does not fit his recognized stature & contradicts societal context of his position. Painting was titled "Haremde Goethe" or "Avluda Kadınlar" (Women in Courtyard), painted by painter Osman Hamdi Bey in 1879, not Caliph Abdulmejid II. #FactCheck

Woland 🇵🇸@stendhalist

'Women in the Courtyard', painted by the last Ottoman Caliph Abdülmecid II

@rosebride666 @smellson213 It could also be them emulating maturity? Older man obviously hold power over younger men. Akio’s whitish hair makes him look like he might as well have gray hairs. Touga and Ruka obviously can’t, but by lightening part of their hair, maybe they seek to resemble an older man.

@SlymBarlova @tacitdimension Yes, the French and Francophone-Belgian traditions are a united tradition, however their proximity shouldn’t erase Belgium’s massive contribution. As for your second point, you are a right wing French nationalist and you people cannot use objective thought, so I won’t humor you.

English

Slym Barlova@SlymBarlova·28 May

@AdaSlothland @tacitdimension There are franco-belgian. Same tradition. Spirou was created by a french (Rob-Vel), Morris was from 30 km of the french border, Tintin was pretty soon intentionaly vague about his country (he goes to St Nazaire to take a boat, lol), B&M and Spirou oftenly written or drawed by Fr.

@tacitdimension Thanks, Eid Mubarak to you too. Strongly recommend checking out fumetti, especially Topolino if you like more cartoony stuff or Dylan Dog if you like more gritty stuff.

@AdaSlothland Also Eid Mubarak

Ada the sloth@AdaSlothland·28 May

@tacitdimension For Italian fumetti, some classics would be: Martin Mystere, Dylan Dog, Zagor, Topolino, Tex, Captain Miki, Blek… Not to mention Thee CORTO MALTESE.

English

Ada the sloth@AdaSlothland·28 May

@tacitdimension On top of all of this, Italy also has a “deep” comics history in fumetti, they may not be in the same level with US comics, BD and manga but they definitely deserve respect. It’s incomprehensible how much fumetti get ignored in these discussions.

@itsakeyboard @Furubafani Absolutely yes, but I think they meant it in the sense that they don’t try to portray her as a flawless paragon of goodness just because she’s a victim. She does things that *in isolation* are morally bad, creating a realistic portrayal of a human victim.

I love morally ambiguous woman

moonreeds 🌙@verydrearydays

i think morally ambiguous characters are some of the best characters in fiction because they are the most reflective of people in the real world. everybody does good and bad things. people have regrets and people change; they are not static characters

@number1dumb1ss @HaangEmHiigh X wasn’t made LONG after that time. Rock and X were both made by Dr Light when he was alive, there must’ve been years between their making but they were both made within one human lifetime. X was put into stasis after his completion, and woke up 100 years later.

English

Rando✨@number1dumb1ss·21 May

@HaangEmHiigh They’re completely different characters Rock was made during the Classic era X was made LONG after that time. They just look similar All of the Mega Man (Mega Men) are completely different characters No matter the timeline or variation.

@MaxOKE_ “Mega Man” separately for all other instances, “Megaman.exe” as one word because it’s a file name, “Rockman” as one word for all instances. They’ve been pretty consistent with this, I’m surprised there’s even discourse…

@trottlesnot @STALINFEM @gpork The issue with the movie isn’t that it casts black people in a story that takes place in Ancient/Mycenean Greece. That alone would be perfectly reasonable. The issue is that it casts non-Greek black AND WHITE people to play Greek characters. Get your priorities straight.

English

Ada the sloth@AdaSlothland·9 May

@trottlesnot @STALINFEM @gpork Ancient Greeks certainly knew of “Sub Saharan Africans”. One of the later written lost ancient epic poems within the Trojan Epic Cycle, the direct sequel to the Illiad, featured Ethiopean/Sudanese people heavily: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aethiopis

TIRED ☕️@STALINFEM·8 May

Why are you only picking out the black actors, when the white ones dont rep Greeks either 💀

Kangmin Lee | 이강민@kangminlee

Are any Greeks acting in Christopher Nolan's The Odyssey at all? Or is cultural appropriation only offensive if it goes one way?

@blipman744 @thhouseofblack Westerners think all white people look the same just because they are lumped into the same arbitrary “race”, but that’s far from the truth. Race is a construct, geography is not. A Greek has more in common visually and culturally with a brown Egyptian than with an Anglo-Saxon.

Blipman@blipman744·7 May

@thhouseofblack Well, if a Chinese epic had a cast mostly consisting of Japanese and Korean people, a German guy would raise more eyebrows like bro, you’re not even close to the ideal image in my mind. And Lupita is far from the image people have in their minds

sil ♡ penelope whisperer@thhouseofblack·7 May

The epithet "White-armed" is used in greek mythos to symbolise the high status of noble women. It is used for Penelope and Helen as they did not toil under the sun but were royal women who were pale and stayed indoors. It's why men were dark and women white in ancient Aegean art

Lanthimost nation@egotis10

@AtreiLeonidas Yet Helen was described by Homer as having white hands and the rest of Ancient Greek an European literature to this day as a blond lady not as an ebony one. There are many Greeks who are blond btw

@sabers_teeth @femboxd The ancient Greeks perceived it to be history. The ancient Greeks told it as if it was history. It was certainly not fantasy to its intended audience.

The original post is deleted now, wish I had the insight to take more pictures of it. The og post was clearly about Armenians without saying it out loud. Posting this so it’s clear that many many Turks don’t deny it was a genocide, they simply think it was “necessary”.

Hey, remember when in 2022 a post that had the exact words “Some genocides are necessary” got 10K likes on Turkish Tiktok? No correlation with this month.
