i think plenty of greek soldiers were actually well educated iirc

I just don't imagine a dude who spent 20 years thrusting spears near the mediterranean as very adaptable or imaginative. They'd spend the first week in the future in shock.

like you wouldn’t spend your first week in the past the same way ;)

I'm in 2025 and yeah theres definitely some long term shock, crippling fear of the world.

Only if they couldn't find somewhere to thrust their spear 😏

Hey

They didn't just thrust spears

They also thrust their "spears" into their battle-brothers

Greek soldiers were SUPER GAY.

What I'm saying is -- If a lost hoplite ever found themselves in the 21st century, alllllll you'd need to do. Is point them to the nearest gym. They'd bond with the local queer gymbros and IMMEDIATELY feel right at home.
