re: Nike claims women’s basketball players are superior to Alexander the Great

Destroy the past, this is on brand for tyrants

Trying to change natural order of things much like climate change and science. We are in such a blip of time that the future world is going to laugh it asses off

There’s no real evidence that Alexander was a homo. That’s modern academics wish-casting its values onto reality.

---

Several different writers spoke of how physically affectionate he was with his Companions, (his elite calvary unit of guys his own age). It's not definitive proof but the pointed nature and frequency of the mentions do seem like a strong hint. But it's worth noting that the ancient Greeks and Roman's saw a huge difference in the "male role" and "female role" in gay sex. Playing the male role didn't make you gay, in their view.

Helonism he spread far and wide
The Macedonian learned mind
Their culture was a western way of life
He paved the way for Christianity
Marching on, marching on
The battle weary marching side by side
Alexander's army line by line
They wouldn't follow him to India
Tired of the combat, pain and the glory
Alexander the Great
His name struck fear into hearts of men
Alexander the Great
He died of fever in Babylon

I swear the emotional intelligence of this generation is so weak. I hope we don’t have to storm any beaches anytime soon.

Spreading disinformation about a young man who, at 16, studied un Aristotle, and who conquered most of the known world in less time than we've been in the 21st century - yet still died at 32 years old.

What did the Democrats say about disinformation again?

There is no sexual element to that. Having close and strong companions was a trait every man admired. Doesn't make it gay. Alexander was also married twice.

Also, there was no 'the Greeks.' There were literally hundreds of autonomous city states with different laws and customs, united only by a somewhat common language. Yes, homosexuality was tolerated in some of them, but it also garnered the death sentence in others. There were also a myriad of negative slang terms for gays especially, as you mention, the bottoms. The notion that 'ancient Greece' was some kind of gay utopia is nonsense.

Liberal academics/activists have been trying to assert that a lot of historical figures were gay, selling it by relying on the grey, incomplete accounts of history.

That’s t-boy and Sammy’s utopia.

it is nice watching Betas like you cry over commercials from 3 years ago

I recently had a chance to meet a former (and not recently former) female college basketball player in a work related incident and they don't need to be told this by Nike to believe it.

We need to stop giving money to companies that hate us.
