I think this is code for “True to the art of the white race.”
There’s literally terminally online people mad that the Odyssey just… isn’t that.

For those that have had enough of the Elon Musk worship online.
No flaming, baiting, etc. This community is intended for those opposed to the influx of Elon Musk-related advertising online. Coming here to defend Musk or his companies will not get you banned, but it likely will result in downvotes. Please use the reporting feature if you see a rule violation.
Opinions from all sides of the political spectrum are welcome here. However, we kindly ask that off-topic political discussion be kept to a minimum, so as to focus on the goal of this sub. This community is minimally moderated, so discussion and the power of upvotes/downvotes are allowed, provided lemmy.world rules are not broken.
Post links to instances of obvious Elon Musk fanboy brigading in default subreddits, lemmy/kbin communities/instances, astroturfing from Tesla/SpaceX/etc., or any articles critical of Musk, his ideas, unrealistic promises and timelines, or the working conditions at his companies.
Tesla-specific discussion can be posted here as well as our sister community /c/RealTesla.

The Leon Hitler fans will set their Tesla's on autopilot and watch the movie.
Making an AI generated movie at the end of this year is billionaire equivalent of giving treats to your sickly pet before the euthanization.
In just two years, the premiere will be held at a big party at my cool (not weird) house on mars. The guests will all be real robots that do cool (not weird) dances to thank me for throwing the wildest parties. The AI actors will all have my normal and very regular speaking cadence, comic timing and cool (not weird) body shape. Anyone who isn't a robot but wants to attend will have to get pregnant by me, and from that point forward we will only communicate through filed lawsuits.

Aren't there a bazillion adaptions that only have white English actors already. And of course they didn't care when non-Mediterraneans whites were given roles to play people from the Mediterranean. Like where was the outrage when fucking Gerald Butler played Leonidas with a Scottish accent.
And of course they didn’t care when non-Mediterraneans whites were given roles to play people from the Mediterranean.
"Who are you getting to play a Greek guy from a small island spitting distance from Egypt?"
"After reviewing the candidates, we settled on the most stereotypical Boston Irishman under 60"
I guess they didn't go with a Skarsgård, which shows some restraint.
One of the most historically-accurate period movies I've ever seen is Monty Python and the Holy Grail.
"'ow do you know he's a king?"
"He hasn't got shit all over 'im!"
When Elon says "historically accurate", what he means is "no black people".
I think Elon would also unLGBTQ the Greek Gods.
Ohh, I'm sure there will still be black people. They will just be in the very specific roles of servants / slaves / cannon fodder.
Wouldn't slaves in Greece just be other Greeks and stuff.
No, no, no. None of that "logic" stuff in here, pal.
Musk is making it. They'll be black. To match his version of historically accurate.
Woke people always showing their brain !
In addition to the obvious, wasn't Homer not a person? I feel like I heard that it was more of a legend people collected stories under. May have that mixed up with something else though.
Sorta kinda. There might have been a poet we know as Homer, but the consensus is he did not "write" the trojan war poems (we only have two out of the eight - illiad and Odyssey). People have been arguing about this before any of us were born
How does the CEO of so many corporations have time to fuck around with stuff like this.
There’s much speculation that Musk’s companies tend to work best when he sticks to attracting attention to them (which he actually does quite well, I guess) but he keeps his nose out of their technicals and business.
And… well, he attracts attention by doing controversial stuff on Twitter.
Being the biggest troll possible is literally his job.
Cause CEOs don’t really do anything. All the work gets delegated to other people.
Even the mythology of The Iliad and the Odyssey doesn't match up because at the time it is meant to be set, Aphrodite wasn't worshipped, yet she basically sparked off the Trojan War in the myth.
Musk is a fucking numpty.
Thank GOD! AFTER that I HOPE Elon and ~~Child Porn Producing~~ GROK can make a HISTORICALLY Accurate MARVEL DOOMSDAY! I'm TIRED of seeing Wokeness RUIN History!
