Yeah. Yeeeeeah. Especially because the folks having a fit about the accuracy aren't complaining about the costumes, or the styling, or really ... anything else. HMMM.

[(Anonymous)]

... there's a pretty big difference between changing the race of an actual historical person and having costumes that aren't 100% accurate to the time period.

Also, as someone who knows an actual movie/TV costume designer, a lot of times stuff like that is done for budget reasons or for ease of making the costumes/having the actors be able to move around in the costumes.

[(Anonymous)]

You have a point, but I think it's also a heck of a lot easier for the average person to tell the difference between two races than it is to figure out which costumes are historically accurate or not. The latter is pretty esoteric knowledge, the former is fairly obvious to the naked eye.

The difference is that there isn't a big conspiracy to claim that the clothing of certain time periods was actually different than the academics claim.

There is an actual conspiracy that Egyptian Pharaohs were black and European colonialist powers have been covering it up. I had a professor in college who was one such person. He literally told us that the nose of the Sphinx was destroyed to hide the fact that Egyptian pharaohs were all black, which... no. Noses on statues just... break off, dude. Also, Egyptians themselves have stated repeatedly that they take offense at a so-called documentary claiming that Cleopatra was black. If Netflix had just not called it a documentary, I wouldn't give a shit. But they did, so I'm gonna side with the Egyptians and the academics on this one...

I don't know if it's actually true, but my grandfather told me the nose was shot of by either the French Legion or "the English" for shits and giggles.

DA but, yeah, the Sphinx's nose getting blown off by Napoleon is a really common story but it isn't true, the nose has been missing since at least the 15th century. There's stories that it was the result of an iconoclastic attack by Muslim rulers at some point but no one actually knows how it happened.

I've seen plenty of criticism of the clearly painted cardboard accessories.
