Isnt Hercules Roman (Italian)? Heracles was the Greek.There were plenty of black dudes in Ancient Greece... it was a mixed race society.
It's so stupid when people say this, especially when they think it's a big brain point.
The overall aesthetic of the character is important to......the character. This whole argument that it's not integral to the story is how people like you side step that fact.
Like, sure, his skin color doesn't change the story but it changes the entire feeling of it because you don't feel like your watching Hercules.
Do me a favor, think of the name Hercules and think of the first image that it evokes. If it's anything other than a whitish dude, you're lying to yourself.
Is there anything the Italians didn’t steal?Isnt Hercules Roman (Italian)? Heracles was the Greek.

most ridiculous thing is denzel who's like 60 playing a dude in his thirties.I learned the other day that Denzel Washington is playing Hannibal (Carthage Hannibal) in a new Netflix documentary.
Every week we get one step closer to that meme with a black guy playing Hitler.

The Scandinavian dude because they are white like us. We have Arab looking Greeks but they are a minority.
You are arguing with someone who thinks he is closer related to Swedish people than the countries surrounding Greece because "reasons".
This exchange.....
Lead to you saying this in another thread.
LOL
Like, we know you're a shit poster but holy fuck.
Stop deliberating on Greek historical matters.
I am Lorde, Yahya ya. I don't care, ya ya ya.
If Greeks are white then so are Turks,Syrians,Iraqis,Iranians,etc.
You literally admitted there is no definition for white and it just encapsulates "Europe". It's apparently also a modern social construct but we need to also use this definition for Ancient Greece. You don't make any sense.
You have no idea what you are talking about.
Ancient Greeks mingled more with people from the Levant than anyone North. The DNA results also mirror these claims.
Looking white isn't an answer for @tastaylvrI don't know why you tagged me in this conversation, but here's a picture of a Syrian woman:
She looks pretty white to me.

He wants you to give a campus brand college definition of what whiteness is.
Her white skin is a social construction appearently.
