[From “The Vatican schisms from Christianity yet again”]

The first time it was tragedy. This time around, it is farce

The first time, the Pope coveted that which is Caesar’s

This time around, men’s assholes[…]
The latest Pope has just excommunicated the Roman Catholic priesthood’s few remaining Christians

The postChristian churches are all rapidly dying, while the Christian churches are rapidly growing

If you attend a postChristian, postModern, church, there is no one left except those with one foot in the grave

Pretty soon the Pope speaking exCathedra will be yet another letterhead owned by Harvard

Which is going to force the remaining Christian priests of the Roman Catholic to adopt the protestant Catholic position, the high Anglican position, that anyone with valid Apostolic succession who is in a proper relationship with God can validly give someone else apostolic succession, analogous to early anarchic period of feudalism, when any knight[…]could give someone else that right[…]
In related news, Hollywood just cast an angry plains ape as Helen of Troy, and displayed the ape looking and acting like an ape in their trailer. Obviously that is not going to entice viewers to go see the movie[…]
The Pope has been performing insults to Christians and Christianity and attacks against Christians and Christianity in the same way Hollywood, Gillette, Budweiser, and Jaguar have been performing insults and attacks against their customers[…]
We have just had a schism in Anglicanism over priestesses, Orthodoxy over Globohomo, and now we have a schism in Roman Catholicism over the latin Mass. The latin mass dispute is actually a lavender mafia versus straight celibates schism[…]High fertility, high fidelity, non buggery, portions of the Church, are SSPX

The papacy is happy to keep the low fertility part[…]as churches, monasteries, and nunneries empty out, this allows them to sell off their real estate and snort coke off the bums of ladyboys

[From “The Odyssey”]

Homer’s Odyssey is in large part about women, and about female virtue. And, of course, female wickedness and immorality

Penelope[…]is the archetype of the virtuous wife, Helen[…]and Clytemnestra[…]are archetypes of wicked wives

The Goddess Athena assists Penelope and Odysseus’s son

Calypso and Circe are the wicked seductresses

This extensive representation of women is, of course, profoundly anti feminist, presenting the uncompromising position that women should be chaste and faithful, and that the mistress should not seek to replace the wife

Odysseus represents the classic heroic virtues of prudence, justice, fortitude, and temperance, which of course Hollywood cannot stand[…]
Predictably and inevitably, Hollywood’s 2026 Odyssey is an attack upon, and inversion of, Homer’s Odyssey

Which brings me to the armor[…]
The elites on the battlefield were literal knights in shining armor. They wore armor like a King wears his crown. Nolan did not like that

Nolan built actual ancient ships. Why not authentic looking armor? I conjecture this is just hatred of Europe[…]He gives Greek warriors ugly armor because he thinks Europe’s warrior tradition of manly heroism is oppression and injustice[…]
Helen of Troy is race swapped to represent the victims of colonialist and imperialist oppression[…]
As the Lord of the Rings movies depicted the Orcs as less than human, this movie depicts you[…]as less than human. The Greek soldiers oppressing Helen of Troy represent you and me oppressing Africa and Africans, enslaving blacks,and oppressing women and gays

In fact, of course, until the European set foot[…]the Africans lived in mud huts and ate each other, and when colonialism fell back, they resumed eating each other in substantial parts of Africa[…]
Hollywood has been losing money by attacking its audience. It will continue to attack its audience and continue to lose money because it hates its audience more than it loves money
