Odysseus went to war for ten years in Athens, He then had to sail back home from said war after he had won. It took Odysseus another ten years to get back home, through his twenty years away his wife was loyal to him and was waiting for him to return. Odysseus, Loyal? AHAHAHA. Anyways Odysseus could technically be called a hero by saving his crew from Polyphemus the cyclops, from the sirens and sea monsters to the oracle. He is most definitely flawed, he cheated multiple times, let good men die, etc

Read The Lessons of Salem, by Laura Shapiro
What ironic situation does Shapiro describe in paragraph 3?
Answer: The irony of having those who “confessed” to witchcraft spared and those who defended their innocence being killed.
Explanation:
The Puritan witch hunts of 1692 would get confessions by torturing the suspects to justify the hunt itself, and those who would refuse to confess would end up being hung to death. The irony lies in the fact that none of the suspects had anything to do with witchcraft, and the proceedings of the trials were especially prejudicial to those who were honest.
I mean this is more ao but Fifty shades of Grey is pretty similar to the concept you’re describing.
