i can forgive people for not referencing an ancient comedy that would take an entire paragraph of preamble to explain its relevant before making a point about a fictional story from a long time ago.
it's not like it was a history.
"In a move straight out of lysistrata, an ancient greek comedy where women withold sexual favours to stop a war"
I literally read that shit as part of a three month subject in year nine
Yeah we talking about America though. From experience we spend more time on our own states history than the entirety of Greece and Rome, except in relation to why so much Greco-Roman shit is in our country. I'm pretty sure we didn't cover any Greek comedies.
You don't need to know any of that nonsense to be a good little patriotic non unionized factory worker.
