[@alpha_wolf220]

as someone who spent there entire life studying the Greek myths, i could confirm this isn't all that far off. Zues and posiedon are nymphomaniacs, the biggest difference is that Zeus doesn't ask for permission, usualy turns into animals, and has repeatedly forced himself on members of his own family. zues once forced himself on his sister (demeter) and had a child with her (kore, better known as Persephone) and when persephone looked like a teen, Zeus forced himself on her in the form of a snake and the other difference is that Poseidon fathered actual species and monsters (see the horses, cyclopes, lystaegonians, pegasus and chrysaor, Charybdis, icthyocentaurs, literally all forms of life under the sea)

Zeus was a TERRIBLE person, all the Greek "gods" were AWFUL. I don't know why they called themselves gods. They're actually assholes, the only half decent one, ironically is Hades. 1:32- I'm not Greek, but I'm sure they know how terrible Zeus and his "crew" were. I do know Greek women were treated so terribly back then as well. 2:45- Actually Zeus wasn't just a fuck boy, he was a rapist. 3:12- I don't know what Greece's school systems are like, but if they're telling them that these "gods" are heroes and kids should look up to a rapist like Zeus, they are gaslighting them hard. I feel bad for those kids being fed lies. 2:50- I totally forgot that Zeus married Hera who's his sister. 🤦‍♀️ *Insert Sweet Home Alabama song*

For Greek schools, Perseas, Heracles e.t.c. are the heroes. Zeus, Poseidon e.t.c. are usually described as the ones that if you do anything to make them hate you, they will look for you, they will find you and they will find a way for you to have the most ironic death *ever*. Hades, as the most just god, would then find the most fitting punishment for your crimes possible. Their temples though? Multiple school trips with guides describing each room
