I hate going to bat for Christopher Nolan, but a bunch of dudes getting mad at an unreleased movie they think is about Achilles, because they have grievances with translations they've only heard about online, is just really funny.

Anyone who thinks Greek culture was built by Africans or that Greeks look like Lupita Nyong'o is just really, really stupid. No offense to Lupita, she's lovely but she's not Greek.

These people are insane. Fuck black Panther, he was created and owned by a white man. I understand your jealousy of not having your own mythology, but go steal the Arab or Chinese histories and keep mine out of your mouth.
Ubong Ekpo@EkpoNeptune

@kangminlee @itsme__azairah False equivalence, black panthers race is the backbone of his character, Greek mythology doesn’t need to adhere to exact race, and nobody else in the cast Greek, tom holland, Matt Damon, Anne Hathaway,

@Oksendaz @maenadea @Normonism Better than being an inbred neckbeard who has probably copulated with multiple relatives and needs a few courses of ozempic and a cold glass of glyphosate.

@maenadea @Normonism Just like he said. Strawman. The outrage is over the cultural appropriation and disrespect for Greek culture, history and heritage. You wouldn't care because the Greeks aren't one of the protected groups.

How dare Christopher Nolan offend Greece by casting a black woman in his film as a Greek. He must apologize immediately to the one Greek person Americans can even name: a black basketball player in Milwaukee.

Here I am, reading Homer’s Odyssey directly from the Greek text and thinking about how much Christopher Nolan disrespected us. Don’t pay for the movie. Resist this slowly dying agenda that is rotting our societies. Hollywood is dead.

@VeritasAeternii @Ikaros1428312 @HistoryDruid Erasmus invented his pronunciation. Reconstructed ancient Greek is simply an Anglo-Germanic guess as to what they think it sounded like according to their sensibilities. Listening to their rendition of ancient Greek is highly offensive as it sounds absurd and quite ugly.

@Ikaros1428312 @VeritasAeternii @HistoryDruid Ikaros, they teach ancient Greek in universities with an Anglo-Germanic accent, also known as Erasmian Greek. That's why they will always tell you, a Greek, that you're wrong and they know how to properly speak the language.

1/ UN Special Rapporteur Francesca Albanese was in Athens this weekend, warning Greeks about their alliance with Israel: "You think you have chosen Israel. Israel has picked you. It's going to exploit your fears and your insecurity — because this is what Israel does — to advance its regional hegemony."

@vigilamus @CamiloPessanha @Dr_TheHistories The original owners are never the barbarians or terrorists. Those are the illegal invaders, genocides and occupiers. Tearing down churches built before your people even entered the region and stole the land will never make you a native.

@CamiloPessanha @Dr_TheHistories Actually destruction of historical artifact IS terrorism and barbarism, however maybe I’m wrong and you are right, which gives me an idea. There are a lot of churches in my country, maybe we should de-terrorize and de-barbarize them, what you you think?

After the population exchange with Turkey in 1922, Greeks began a process of removing the cultural remnants of centuries of enemy occupation. Here, a colorized photo of the demolition of the minaret on the Osman Çavuş mosque in the town of Ioannina, circa 1930. #drthehistories

@GulsunarEng But moreso there is a tradition of Turks being seen as "other" to Europe. The expulsions, massacres, even genocide of Turks in Rumelia has been, so far, effectively memory-holed in European histories. Treatment of TCypriots as not much more than an inconvenience, normalised.

It is wrong to see Europe’s reluctance to include Turkey in its future security architecture as nothing more than irrational anti-Turkey sentiment. There are certainly people in Europe who think that way, but Turkey’s democratic backsliding over the past 20 years has also led Europe to no longer see Turkey as part of itself.
Defence24com@Defence24eng

European Parliament is pushing to limit 🇹🇷Türkiye’s role in future EU defence projects despite Ankara being one of NATO largest military powers Europe wants strategic autonomy but is sidelining a key defence player in the process ⁦@natalia_poteradefence24.com/geopolitics/li…

I don't think most people really understand what the Uranium One situation was about. It was Canadian shareholders that got hustled by the Kazakhs and Russians. Hillary signed off on the acquisition of U1 by the Russians. Giustra and Telfer are the names to know.
AwakenedOutlaw⚒️@AwakenedOutlaw

Correct: This goes back the the 'Uranium One' scandal. Hillary sold uranium from Montana when she was Secretary of State (under Obama) back in 2010 to a Russian firm, which then made its way to Iran. As per plan, no doubt. This will be forensically proven by the its specific isotope signature when we get our hands on the currently buried material in Iran. Think about the implications.
