As long as they’re played by WASPs it is accurate

Fully nude, with extra jiggle physics added.

There will also be scenes about how women need to be more modest and stop being whores

I will only accept this if everyone is fully nude. Everyone. The entire cast.

Also I demand extra jiggle physics added for Scylla and Charybdis.

That's fine, because the Sirens in the actual Odyssey have the heads of women and the bodies of birds, so we can have all the naked birds on screen we like and not even have to spend money on jiggle physics.

Have you seen Apocalypto? Your accusation is backwards. Gibson didnt cast a single WASP. Nolan casts from a San Francisco Busstop.

Please cast all the Mediterranean types for The Odyssey. Unironically.

Funny it’s not known. When I was a kid it came up every political election. Every president was a WASP except Kennedy

It used to be very important in American society, in the late 19th century and early 20th. There were WASP societies, and anti immigrant sentiment was largely based around the idea of keeping the US as WASP as possible.
