You’re Not Odysseus, Go to Therapy

y’know.... conversations about world war ii would be a lot more bearable and constructive if white men found that period rightly horrific rather than pornographic We glorify war because it’s the only time we’re allowed to release the beast and not go to jail for it. You want to see who a man truly is, put him in a battle. Man is never more himself, than when he has nothing to lose. you’re not fucking odysseus, go to therapy

A screenshot of a social media discussion about glorifying war and masculine identity, followed by a large rebuttal telling the speaker they are not Odysseus and should go to therapy. The joke mocks romanticized ideas about war and compares them to grandiose heroic fantasies from Greek mythology.
