THE ALLEGED «SPARTAN PEDERASTY» IS A FALLACY REPEATED AD NAVSEAM BY IGNORANT HISTORIANS; ITS ORIGIN IS ATHENIAN DEFAMATION, FROM THE FOURTH CENTURY B C E (BEFORE CHRISTIAN ERA), WHICH, LIKE ALL POLITICAL PROPAGANDA AGAINST AN ENEMY, THE VICES OF THE ONES CONCOCTING THE PROPAGANDA ARE PROJECTED UPON THE ADVERSE OTHER: ATHENIANS WERE THE ONES WHO VIRTUALLY INSTITUTIONALIZED PEDERASTY.
I enjoyed the movie but the "fighting for freedom" shit was cringe considering the nature of Spartan society. Just get him to say they're fighting for their people or something
>They assign to the Helots every shameful task leading to disgrace. For they ordained that each one of them must wear a dogskin cap and wrap himself in skins and receive a stipulated number of beatings every year regardless of any wrongdoing, so that they would never forget they were slaves. Moreover, if any exceeded the vigour proper to a slave's condition, they made death the penalty; and they allotted a punishment to those controlling them if they failed. >This lack of judicial protection is confirmed by Myron of Priene, who mentions killing as a standard mode of regulation of the Helot population. According to a passage in Thucydides, 2,000 helots were massacred in a carefully staged event in 425 BC or earlier: >The helots were invited by a proclamation to pick out those of their number who claimed to have most distinguished themselves against the enemy, in order that they might receive their freedom; the object being to test them, as it was thought that the first to claim their freedom would be the most high spirited and the most apt to rebel. As many as two thousand were selected accordingly, who crowned themselves and went round the temples, rejoicing in their new freedom. The Spartans, however, soon afterwards did away with them, and no one ever knew how each of them perished.

Ancient Greece was less gay than today.

meanwhile in reality
I'm white, and I have literally nothing against this.
well at least russians are being honest about their NTR obsession now
Mail-order Russian brides are nothing new, zoomie.
>And furthermore, ATHENS DELENDA EST
Athenians are protected by their wooden walls. No harm shall come to them.
>I’m fighting for no free helots at home
>I'm fighting Persians to be able to keep on inserting my penis in men's anuses even tho that wouldn't change with the Persians in charge

The Persians were probably whiter than the Greeks.
He is a slave owner, so that does make sense unlike private Gonzales fighting for big corps interests.
>society is so strict and harsh that they basically cause their own eradication
How would you have fixed the Spartans Cinemaphile?
