I have a one sided beef with mythology retellings
Circe, the song of Achilles, Ennead and even fucking Percy Jackson. I CAN'T TAKE THE MISINFORMATION ANYMORE, the fans of these are some of the most uneducated and insufferable people to be around, LIKE NO ACHILLES WAS NOT A GOOD PERSON he's not a poor lil gay boy who lost his lover and Patroclus was not a twink who couldn't fight, he was one of the best warriors...he deserved to die, Hector of Troy was the victim, the troyans were the victims. Ennead is a orientalist dumpster fire that whitewashes half of the gods and specifically makes the "beautiful" god's light skinned.
regarding ennead...in mythology the gods are depicted as gold or green or whatever, like they didnt even have real skin color, so what white washing?
and the most beautiful god in ennead is ra and idgaf.
i dont see how it comes off as orientalist ether when its just verrry loosely based on mythology stories, not real Egyptian history, society or cu...... 3 reply
