who cares lol it's just a movie/videogame/book
>historically non-white character portrayed as white
THIS EUROCENTRIC, WHITE SUPREMACIST BIAS IN OUR POP CULTURE IS EXTREMELY PROBLEMATIC AND WE NEED TO TALK ABOUT IT

But the emperor wasn't Roman he was a Greek, why else would Mehmed visit Troy
The bible probably is the oldest book in the world because of its component parts

>Cleopatra was egyptian.
Not by blood but definitely Egyptian by culture.

What has this to do with Veeky Forums?

Obvious troll is obvious.
No, she was hellenic by culture. The fact that she spoke the local language doesn't mean that she went full native.

> what does history and humanities have to do with history and humanities?
???

>lived in Egypt
>dressed in Egyptian garb
>worshipped Egyptian gods
>spoke Egyptian language
A few centuries from Ptolemy, his descendants were culturally assimilated.

During an argument with one guy he tried to act smart and called me a homo sapiens after I called him a neanderthal, and added I should join my extinct cousins

The viking one comes from when our class thot asked our history teacher if Vikings ate hearts of their enemies

Your personal stance on choice of actors for some media is hardly history and humanities. Go back to /pol/.

Videogames and films are humanities?

Kek.

>historical portrayals have nothing to do with Veeky Forums

>A few centuries from Ptolemy, his descendants were culturally assimilated
I've never heard this claim before, care to provide some sources for it?
Hellenism didn't have any problem with assimiliating foreign deities, whatever egyptian language she spoke wasn't her primary language and there was plenty of non-egyptians living in Egypt during the rule of the macedonian ptolemaic dynasty. I don't know about garb but I wouldn't put it past her to wear some native styles.

That wasn't his point. His point was the /pol/-spergery.

And my point is you should suck it up honey

>I've never common sense before, care to provide some sources for it?

Care to provide some sources for your ludicrous claim that several generations after an expat his children would still worship his decaying culture?

imagine being this fucking retarded

>common sense
Hellenic culture was alive and well in Alexandria even in AD times.

>Common sense is a useful tool for gleaming knowledge and not at all something which backfires all the time.
You're joking right?

The fact that atleast the upper strata of ptolemaic egypt was hellenised isn't exactly obscure knowledge. I'd urge you to atleast check up some wiki links and perhaps even read some of its sources.
en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ptolemaic_Kingdom seems like a good start for you.
Hellenism, culturally and religously was thriving in Egypt for centuries after it lost its independence to Rome.

How about the fact that she married her brother you dummy? or that she told people she was Isis incarnate?

Must be why all the art is strictly non-greek in nature.
Oh wait, its still hellenic, since Egypt is hellenic, hurrr durr.
Yeah, if you include everything under the umbrella term "hellenic", then its hellenic.

Was Alexander also egyptian by culture?

Are you talking about the ptolemaic dynasty or about their kingdom?

All art of the last Cleopatra, all her dresses, all the rituals, all of this shit was not greek.
She didn't live like a greek, didn't rule like a greek, didn't present herself as a greek.

The Ptolomic dynasty didn't speak egyptian you mongoloid fuck.
Thats a talking point about how detached from common society, how could you not know that

Stop making straw men.
No one here is arguing that the dynasty didn't adopt traditional pharaonic customs, or that other cultural assimiliations didn't happened.

>historically white character portrayed as black
this has never happened

It actually has.

Can you elaborate on how they're used as teaching aids in the History or Humanities faculties?

>Phoenicians
>White
You're as bad as the fucking afrocentrists, they were Semitic

semite are caucasoid.

Caucasoid /= "white"

>political fringe cases are normies

>unironically calling someone a neanderthal during an argument.
I bet you pronounced it right too you fucking faggot.

Oh please.

Go back to pol

What's this kids skin colour?

caucasoid =/= nigger

mixed caucasoid

What's this kids skin colour?
Should he go back to his reservation?

I never said it did
That isn't a skin colour, if you're going to call people white they have to actually be white

>gender is not a social construct

>That isn't a skin colour
Neither is white, unless they're ghostly transparent albinos.

Obviously gender is a social construct if you define it as simply self-identification.

But if you ask me that's just half the equation.

I too find this infuriating. I as a white man can appreciate a production of Hamlet wherein a bunch of Danes are played by black people. But when the reverse happens all hell breaks loose. Like that movie that was being made where a white British dude was playing Michael Jackson.

>Genociding the Germans would be the wrong thing to do

>Like that movie that was being made where a white British dude was playing Michael Jackson
I don't know how anybody ever thought that would go down well, MJ is like black Jesus to some people

>Napoleon was just as bad as Hitler

>Greeks fought the Persians for democracyt

This

I mean, they fought Persians to preserve their independence, and part of Athenian independence was their democracy, so like half true for 1 of the city states I guess?

I wish Italy went to war with Germany over Austria (they probably would've too if they weren't isolated after the whole Ethiopia thing).

>China would've been democratic if Chiang Kai Shek won the civil war.

>WWI was started by Germany

>China
>Good qualities always attributed to communism
>Bad qualities always blamed on capitalism
Really gets the noggin joggin

I'm really curious to see how people would justify the Four Pests Campaign or the Great Leap Forward (or pretty much any of Mao's autism really).

the drought that caused the first year's famine made the crops fail for the next 3 years too even though it was over

>Austria started WW2 (said by an Austrian)
>Hitler built the Autobahn

>I wish Italy went to war with Germany
I'd like to see that too

Alexander wasn't born in Egypt and raised in the traditions of Egyptian nobility, you fucking donut.

>when destroying the economy isn't communist enough so you decide to destroy both the surrounding ecosystem and your own agriculture

>the vikings were cool
>the vikings believed in celtic gods
>the vikings were an entire people of honourable warriors
>the vikings were actually powerful enough to post a threat to the european kingdoms even during the high middle ages
Everytime my flatmate starts talking about history, I want to strangle him

Do they also believe the Vikings all wore horned helmets

>all romans and ancient greeks were openly bisexual and fucked eachother in the ass

>the umayyads were great, the abbasids were basically ISIS
also comparing current day entities to historical entities

No it's not. Many of the greek cities under persian dominion were democracies.

>raised in the traditions of Egyptian nobility
Are you implying that this didn't shift over time and with different ruling dynasties?

No, I'm not implying that, and I'm confused as to how you'd infer that from my post because it really doesn't follow from what I said.

Agreed. Putting it all down to social constructionism is just plain dumb.

They didn't.

I love how Mussolini loved to act like a tough guy faggot even though he ended up getting hanged by his own people after accomplishing nothing.

Because you, or some other user, claimed that the hellenic dynasty had gone native, and that hellenic religious practices didn't survive in egypt.

The Crusaders who attacked Constaninople were monsters

>Bolsheviks kicked out the Tzar from throne.
>Jews managed to send a message regarding killing of tzar and taking over the world by using four symbols.

So Jews ARE white now?

Lmao Italy fucking sucked and was begging for German help.
This comes off as weak and sad in the light of reality.

Of course they did it is to symbolise them being cucks.

Try to run your two braincells together ploz. African is synonymous with negroid
