In case you are not familiar with mythology: the father of the Minotaur was a white bull sent by Poseidon to King Minos. The king didn’t sacrifice the bull, so Poseidon got mad and enticed the king’s wife to fuck him, thus giving birth to half-bull, half-human Minotaur. The Minotaur was then imprisoned in a labyrinth by King Minos.

Ancient greeks were a bunch of murderous, pedophile cucks.
Greeks also invented democracy.
Coincidence? I think not.

There’s several millennia between modern politics and the ancient Greeks. Like there’s so much history between Ancient Greek politics and modern politics that it’s outright absurd. Sure the enlightenment thinkers thought of themselves as being engeriters of the Greeks in a lot of ways but most modern systems are based off of Roman structures since Rome was an actual state and not a bunch of polis with variable systems.

Moral of the story: If the Gods give you a bull, fuck it before it gets your wife pregnant.
