      Oh it was a cyclops they were portraying? Then the complaint makes no sense tbh

      But I honestly want a source on there being plenty of black people in Ancient Greece. I’ve never heard of that before

        They were living beside the main continent where black people come from? People migrate, and honestly, most civilizations portrayed as mostly white are mostly people of colour. It does not matter if there was a person of colour in a place that did not care about skin tones, and probably was a large portion people of colour; they were on the same land mass, and frankly did not care. You are making a bad reputation for yourself by demanding sources, then dismissing them when they’re given, without giving any yourself. Please learn how to have a debate, online or not.

        Regardless of whether Greece was mostly people of colour or not doesn’t really matter, and if it ruins a movie for someone, unless it’s a large part of the lore, they’re racist, usually even if it is part of the lore.

          The logic that Greece is next to Asia so there should be plenty of Indians there for example is not really the kind of stuff I was hoping for when I asked for a source.
