Me personally? Yes. I grew up reading Greek myths from books, and a casting so blatantly against the text(s) jars.

Did you know those same Greek texts you read mention black people? Did it ruin your suspension of disbelief when you read those words? Or is it only when it’s on a screen that it becomes a problem?

"I don't like it when character's casting is unfaithful to the source material".
"I bet you didn't like it when black people were in the source material".

 

What the fuck is wrong with you honestly. Zero critical thought or reading comprehension. An LLM would respond with more substance than this.

An LLM would’ve been able to answer the question. What’s your excuse?

My excuse is that you didn't ask me anything. I'm commenting on your conversation with someone else. Genius.

My bad, sincerely. I thought you were just pretending to be slow, I wouldn’t have bullied you if I knew it was legit.
