I spent some time typing up a response, but nothing sat right with me. Trying to reason with Old Man Zeus is a battle best left alone.

Searched earlier to see if they are considered reliable, apparently they changed leadership in 2016 in an effort to focus more on legitimate journalism again

Which this article is. I dont think Zeus likes it because it paints Trump in a negative light.

Especially when it's so much easier to call somebody an old man. Why defend the indefensible when you can simply ad hominem?

Even before Trump ran, Vice was a terrible source for anything.

Not really an ad hominem, when mythology traditionally paints the mythical god Zeus as literally an ancient and bearded man.

Was going to post some examples, but most of the paintings include half-naked women... or fully-naked women in other cases.

You're joking, right? A simple Google search of "Zeus" results in a page full of pictures of an old, white-haired, and bearded white guy.

Except no, many of the depictions are youthful. Even the white-haired depictions are generally very young, in the same way that anime characters have white or grey hair despite being young. And a generic google search returns results for *modern* interpretations rather than historical depictions.

And the fact that you somehow associate beards with old age highlights your historical ignorance. Not only are beards associated with manhood throughout historical fiction (which often make a big deal of youths growing their first beard), but people who opted to be clean-shaven in youth would continue that practice throughout their life.

This argument about Zeus's mythological appearance/age with Zeus arguing against it is hilarious when you click on Zeus's name to see his profile pic

Uh-huh. quit being so defensive, You "got it up" hundreds of times, and did it thousands of years before Viagra was invented. You've got nothing to be ashamed of.

Well, other than maybe some of your offspring...

The depictions may be youthful, but most people associate Zeus as an old man, between his 40s and 70s.
