Can I get an analysis of this video? I want an explanation of exactly what is wrong with it.

Sounds like Odysseus has read some Nietzsche/Stirner/Machiavelli
Also all the stupid patriarchy/women shit is just annoying
He is too opinionated. I am all for treating women well but what does this have to do with interpreting a work from 3000 years ago

I hate people like this. What's wrong with needing a man? I feel empty without a woman.

To be fair 4chan cherry picks things from the thousands of things he says to make him seem that way.
>>7852446
better than the people who use history to support their modern misogyny

I'd say it is different for every person. It is fucked up that feminism tries to make women feel bad for they way they might feel.

I doubt John speaks for all of "feminism" or that there even is a "feminism" that all women agree upon.
Jesus christ what an awful video, please do not share again OP.
>>7852474
Is it?

>calling the Odyssey a book
Well, I think we all know who the real cuck is here.

We just need first wave Christian feminism to come back desu. I want a strong woman because I'm a strong man. Why does there have to be an imbalance?
I really liked his CC world histroy 1&2 series. But yeah his "patriarchy" stuff is absolutely annoying.
Still, he is a millionaire who has teens wordwide beg for his dick so there's that.

im pretty sure girls just want to sleep with him in the most innocent sense possible
>>7852545
how did you read it? as a bunch of papers with no bindings?
>>7852474
who and when with what historical facts?
>>7852118
patriarchy doesn't promote male hypersexuality or promiscuity

He makes the slaughter at the end of the poem sound much worse by conveniently omitting that the suitors were plotting to kill Telemachus and both Odysseus and Penelope knew this. He also fails to mention that Penelope and the faithful maids point out the maids that betrayed Odysseus (not only sleeping with the suitors, but helping them plot murder) fully expecting them to kill those maids.
I'm not totally against the PTSD reading as an intellectual exercise, there's actually an interesting reading of Paradise Lost that involves PTSD recovery, but saying that killing the suitors was unjustified just isn't considering the cultural context. Killing the people who ruined your home and tried to kill your son is hardly unreasonable for the Greeks, especially when you have the literal goddess of justice saying you should.
