Hey, sorry, the joke was that in ancient Rome, a common sentiment among Roman statesmen was that Greece was a hub of moral decay enabled by Greek philosophy, which they just saw as intellectual rubbish divorced from reality, and the epitome of that was the well-known fact that male homosexuality was firmly integrated into ancient Greek culture. Since Dethcon made a joke about this pornographic depiction of a minotaur (a figure from Greek mythology) making him question his loyalty to Rome, that association is just what came to my mind.
I should have considered that for people unfamiliar with ancient Rome and Greece, the comment could appear really stupid or like actual hate speech. I'm sorry I didn't think that far, I just kind of blurted it out while distracting myself from work for five minutes.
Thanks for pointing it out. If you still think it's just in bad taste, feel free to hide it. Sorry again for making you feel uncomfortable.

No way, thank you for getting back to me and for clarifying that ♥ I think the explanation suits it better than hiding the comment and making people wonder what was said to be honest, 'gay', 'paedophile' and 'degenerate' all in sequence like that is just one of those things I've been around on the internet long enough to have alarm bells triggered about. xD I didn't want to jump to conclusions just the same though, but you're fine, promise. ♥
