Youtube hearted comments of (@snowcat9308).

  1. Did a look at his channel, and he doesn't seem to be as poorly-motivated as some other youtubers (cough cough Leather Apron Club). He's a history channel who makes a living by addressing common historical misconceptions. And frankly, as a gay dude who loves history, I'd really rather have the right picture of the past than lie or be lied to about it. Besides, don't you think falsely calling these ancient civilizations "gay-friendly" kinda takes away from the hard work and progress that liberal thought has made in the west for the past 700 years or so?

  2. No one is gonna talk about how these dudes literally heard an earthquake in the middle of the ocean

  3. Your concern is valid but ultimately misplaced. If you want to see what a real badly-motivated homophobe looks like, I suggest you watch Leather Apron Club's videos on the topic. Unlike Metatron here, he has made his channel explicitly about addressing and admonishing gay rights and LGBT-related things. Metatron is just addressing a popular historical myth that got picked up by journos because they know it will get them clicks. Also since when can you choose what food you like and don't like? I've always found food to be a fantastic metaphor for my sexuality, because I wasn't necessarily born with my tastes, but they are something that's taken me a lifetime to acquire (and something I could hardly change at a moment's notice).

  4. He is trying his best to be historically accurate. If you want an example of a homophobic take on this subject, I recommend Leather Apron Club's videos on Greece and Rome. The difference between Metatron and LAC is that Metatron's content is predominantly about history, while LAC's content is predominantly about LGBT stuff. And like, it's not good coverage on LGBT stuff lol. Trust me, watch LAC and you'll understand why Metatron is being fair here
