Did anyone walk away from that movie thinking “this is an unreliable narrator story and we shouldn’t take the fash-y elements at face value” or was it “damn the Spartans were bad ass”?

Do you know any kids who have been married at age 12? I do. And guess what? They're still married.

And John Rose met his wife judging a 4H contest.
(Fun fact: you can’t file for divorce as a minor)
Also as a mandatory reporter in the state of Oklahoma… hahhahahahahahah. I just wrote an affidavit about how seriously CPS takes shit.
Benny (“having a wet pussy is a sign of an infection, according to my doctor wife”) is just jealous of anyone who can pull off an acting career.
On the Synder track, 300 is just a really uncomfortable movie. It’s a propaganda movie for a hell-state.
There was a “code blue” in Oklahoma and Texas today because someone shot a cop at a detention facility. People are doing shit, the media isn’t covering it.
Alex Jones just had a caller that was asking how to get his undocumented wife on the list of the “good ones.”
Yeah, not all isosceles (two sides are congruent/same, one side different) triangles are right. The comment only works if it’s a 45-45-90 isosceles triangle.
Any isoceles right triangle is going to have a hypotenuse \sqrt{2} times whatever the congruent sides are. But a non-right triangle is always a little more complicated to deal with.
There don’t seem to be any good math pages on Facebook. I’d like some sort of “daily brain teaser” but it’s all ambiguously written arithmetic problems with parentheses and division, or shit like using “e” as a variable to be obnoxious.
$$ \sqrt{\sec(\theta)-1} $$
I also usually really want people to know that, but it’s not “completing the square” or “wffence of txsquare.”
The infanticide was historically accurate - although probably at a scale less than the movie implies. But it is in sources.
But yeah - the way that the film portrays the treatment of disabled people is especially gross. Pay attention to who is in the court of Xerxes - the acceptance of disabled bodies is presented as akin to the sort of “decadence” of these evil Persians. (If a necromancer brought Edward Said back to life to watch 300, it would probably kill him again.)
The movie is basically a Triumph of the Will for Spartans and torture for anyone who’s actually researched Greek history (Leonidus calling the Athenians “boy lovers” is teeth gritting, part of a Spartan education was getting fucked by older men…)
