So basically, Arachne beat Athena at her own game while simultaneously topping it off with a “And your dad’s a hoe” Chicks got balls, I’ll give her that. Respect
I mean Arachne is right. She worked for her talent but she’s told that it’s not her hard work, discipline and dedication is not her own accomplishments. But the accomplishments of a goddess because she happens to be the goddess of weavers. That’s bs and I don’t blame Arachne at all. She’s just telling it like it is. Her hard work is hers. Not Athena’s
The Gods are the source of all good things. Did Arachne perfect her craft? Yes. But that was a gift from Athena because it is Athena who gives the inspiration and skill for such things
@@drrohanjacob Arachne being the first spider is supposed to be an ironic punishment. Athena did that to her on purpose. It's a way of saying, "Oh you think you're the greatest weaver? Fine. Weave forever!". It's essentially making her a parody. Weaving was a skill that an Ancient Greek woman would be expected to know and could be reasonably proud of if she was good at it. Men bragged about it if every piece of clothing they owned was woven by their wives. By being turned into a spider, Arachne now has to weave to literally eat and have a place to live. What was once a part of her livelihood as a house wife has now become the only way she's ever going to have any kind of life. Athena had the last laugh
Arrogant though she may have been, even Athena (in the end) had to admit that Arachne was just that good. Guess we know that even the gods/goddesses are quite arrogant themselves.

Another innocent victim Arachne she may been a little boast full, but she earned her right to. She worked hard since childhood to be the best she even beat Athena fairly, but she couldn’t accept loosen to immortal.
I mean Athena wouldn’t have punished her if Arachne had shown her some respect and actually thank Athena for taking her time out for to challenge Arachne. Even if she was better than the Goddess, as long as she didn’t show hubris, she would have been fine.
The Greeks always say: That’s the Roman version! Most likely explanation: you were afraid to criticize the gods because of their vengeance. Especially Athena and Zeus.
fun fact: Ovidius was a Roman, and his tales about Greek mythology, including Athena turning women into monsters (like Medusa and Arachne) for the most trivial reasons, were nothing more than fanfiction. They hold as much validity as some random guy on the internet writing fanfiction about Superman turning people into piles of ashes simply because someone shoved a piece of rainbow kryptonite up his rear.

Most of the greek pantheon were (expletive) sore losers. Only two greek gods to my knowledge understood that humanity on its own is capable of great feats and great follies. One is Hades the other escapes me due to sleep deprivation.
The gods wanted everything to b associated with them that it could never b from years of training or being a prodigy. There was a vid on hippogriffs just hours before this vid, but was taken down. What happened to it?
Mane 💀 Arachne was something elze. She had the gall to face a GOD in a competition and even *WON* Ps : All the Greek gods are just criminals pretending to be gods
See, what a lot of people don't understand is that really truly Arachne was wrong. The physical beauty of her weaving did not contain the inner beauty of virtue and piety. Athena's piece was the superior piece because it was both physically excellent and spiritually excellent in that it praised the Gods whereas Arachne's disrespected the Gods. If something is only beautiful physically then it is simply not as beautiful. This is a distinction that modern people often don't realize. Hail Athena!
Arachne grew up hearing the stories of Gods’ “do as I say not as I do”antics and their unjust punishment towards mortals for meddling in their affairs while the gods’ meddling frequently and cruelly ruined mortal lives. Take Zeus how many oaths has he made and yet is quick to punish hapless mortals when he’s made a fool of because of said oath. Arachne was just sick and tired of the Gods glorifying themselves as being perfection incarnate and above any and all ridicule and in a sense giving voice to everyone who believed that the gods’ pride and ego needed to be knocked down a peg or 3.
@@d0lph1n63 Name one oath Zeus has broken. Name one thing He swore not to do but then went ahead and did. That's a pretty bold accusation since He is witness to all oaths. And while you're at it, name something the Gods regularly do that They forbid humans from doing. Name an unjust punishment as well. I don't think you actually can. I think you're just parroting the same stuff everyone else says without thinking about it critically
@@WildMen4444 he didn’t have to swear and while he did keep his oaths he still inflicted retribution whenever his oath made him look like a foul. Look at Prometheus and the sacrifice it was because of his oath that the gods got bones and fat yet instead of acknowledging that he’d been too greedy instead punished humanity. More over how many times did Zeus commit infidelity while married to Hera the goddess of marriage? Even in ancient Greece Zeus’s inability to “keep it in his pants” was well known in fact any mythology buff can count on a single hand the number of times he didn’t bang a pretty mortal and produced a demi-god just as they can name the number of times he protected them from Hera or Hera didn’t go after them or their parents. Yet if a mortal dared pull the same stunt he suddenly became the righteous person. If a mortal so much as caught Hera’s fancy (romantically) he’d make sure that they suffered a fate worse than death.
@@d0lph1n63 It all comes down to respect and dominance. Prometheus was punished because He was insubordinate. Zeus can't just let it slide that He was stolen from. No leader who has any intention of staying in power tolerates that kind of behavior. Regarding Zeus' love life, we have to remember that the Ancient Greeks had a very different idea of how men and women were to relate to each other. As King of the Gods, Zeus is the alpha male. A man had rights to sleep with any woman that belonged to Him. When you're the leader of the cosmos, that's a long list of women and Goddesses. Does Hera have Her misgivings about it? Yes and no doubt this attitude was reflected by human women who had husbands sleeping with his slaves or with prostitutes. At the end of the day though this is Zeus right as king. So when you have guys like Ixion trying to sleep with Hera, it's only understandable that Zeus is going to lay the smack down. Hera is Zeus' wife and Ixion is just some dude. This is disrespectful to Zeus and Hera. Ixion had it coming. The only thing Zeus is guilty of is being shown as acting exactly how a male of His status was expected to act in the time and place these stories were written
