Netflix viewers have fired back after the streaming service was accused of turning Alexander the Great gay. The six part docuseries, Alexander the Making of a God, charts how his ambition led to his claim of creating the largest Western empire in history in just under six years. However, one detail in the series seems to have angered some viewers.
Posting a clip from the first episode which shows Alexander kissing another man, one viewer took to X to complain that Netflix turned Alexander the Great gay Within the first eight minutes. Others, however, make it clear Alexander is widely suspected to have been queer and suggested that those who were annoyed crack open a history book to educate themselves.
