      oh whoops nope okay literal seconds after I hit the play button again she drew a parallel between the vigilantism of cops and twitter mobs "taking justice in their own hands and demanding accountability and consequences for bad behavior".

      lol okay yeah the left-wing hunger for retribution is exactly identical to the right-wing hunger, this is a normal thing to postulate

      she's literally mocking as inherently risible the idea of somebody wanting Amy Cooper to get a life sentence for *checks notes* attempting to murder a random Black man for asking her to use public property correctly I don't support the carceral state, but, uh.

      Like I don't think Cooper should have gotten life in prison either but I don't think it's stupid for the hate crime of attempted murder to be considered on the merits of exactly what it is

      Contra is going full Margaret Atwood with her extreme level of emphasis on Odysseus executing his slaves for sleeping with Penelope's suitors, which... okay fine, that's the most fucked up moment in Homer, but where are you taking it

      "I don't think Odysseus is supposed to be an asshole" lady he literally invades allied territory to force one of his friends to kill his innocent daughter just to facilitate sea travel to stage a war for a woman he doesn't want to marry

      He's not an asshole from Homer's POV, the point is Homer approves of his actions because they reflect the moral system of his society

          For transgressive norms related to specific gods, mind.

          Then again, when you look at the way he was portrayed in Greek tragedy -- specifically, Sophocles' Ajax and Philoctetes and (maybe) Euripides' Rhesus, it's pretty clear Greek attitudes toward Odysseus weren't always too positive.

          In Philoctetes, he's straight-up the villain of the story: he abandoned the title character on an island because he got bit by a snake, then came back ten years later to basically kidnap him through deception and conscript him into the Trojan War.
