Fictional Helen of Troy was hatched from an egg after her fictional God father Zeus transformed into a Swan, anything less than an authentic half-swan half-human actress is inauthentic, no one is complaining about that, just that a black woman is playing the role

British and American white male actors are playing fictional Greek characters and speaking English, nobody is complaining about that just that a black woman is playing a half-swan half-human fictional character, it seems white men can get away with playing inauthentic roles but not a black woman

We have seen this all before,

black woman plays lead in a star wars series, culture war hatemongering expressed as outraged racist, misogynistic psychodrama
