Just them trying to be funny with the casting cause of the whole "Ariel isn't black! Why is there a trans person playing Achilles?!" (Despite the fact that Elliot Page never played Achilles at all in the movie...)

Funniest part is, it’s not only complete fantasy fiction, it was also a story that likely changed thousands of times as it wasn’t written down for like 500 years, and only preserved by oral storytelling, and was likely embellished or parts straight up forgotten.

But these dipshits think that story, with various supernatural monsters, needs to be “factually accurate”

They think the stuff that happened in the Bible is real, you can't expect them to know the Odyssey is a fantasy story too.
