Let's not waste time litigating the harm inherent in making a joke about pretending to be a dinosaur. It isn't that serious, Luigi is not the patriarchal structures within paleontology. You don't fix systemic sexism by dogpiling paleotwt accounts.
@Antrodemus @ReysukaXO Not really how it works my man, at the end of the day you still made a joke about paleontology (a notoriously male dominant subject) with language that purposely excludes women. Playing the whole "oh it's just a meme it doesn't mean anything" card is exactly how dog whistles work

The thing the historical accuracy chuds don't seem capable of contemplating is that Nolan seems to be making a very deliberate aesthetic choice to be working in the register of myth and iconography above historical accuracy, which is true of The Odyssey itself.
@GenStilicho It's funny you say that because it was a consideration until Nolan left that person on red
