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.
I AM THE SAME. I'm greek so it feels like an insult to my heritage every time somebody disregards the actual mythology. Of course it's myth and writing fiction based on it is ok, but acting as if Achilles was a cute gay boy instead of an asshole and rapist like most greek men of the era pisses me off reply
