Then why did Aeschylus and Sophocles -- two of the most respected playwrights in Grecian antiquity, both deeply religious men, Aeschylus being a war hero -- why did both men write plays depicting Achilles as homosexually involved? (The Myrmidons and Achilles Erastai). Why did Socrates and Aristophanes attend the banquet of a homosexual man (Agathon) to celebrate his success in winning a literary competition? Why did the Athenians erect statues to celebrate Harmodius and Aristogeiton, whose entanglement -- according to Thucydides, Plato and others -- was erotic and romantic in nature? Why did Plutarch and Aeschines (and Christian writers like St. John Chrysostom) all say that the ancient lawmaker Solon put homosexuality in a privileged and revered position in Grecian society? Why did Socrates get a boner from Charmides? Why did Plato write so much about homosexuality (against but also for)? Why did Herodotus say that the Persians learned homosexuality from the Greeks? What about the Sacred Band of Thebes, a special battalion of homosexual lovers that up until their eventual defeat were considered invincible precisely because of their bond?
Both the historically illiterate wokies mindlessly memeing about Ancient Greece as some gay utopia AND the idiotic chuds that as a knee jerk reaction to that bark against every single instance of neutral or positive depiction of it as some kind of liberal modern fabrication are simply ignorant and display an aversion to nuance and complexity.

That's taken out of context. This has been debunked.
